• Tasked to review odibets platform and improve performance. One task to implement was saving clients betslips in memory store other than traditional database. Memory store used was redis and implemented API using Golang. Golang was helpful to concurrently handle many request at once using goroutines and channels. I bypassed over using traditional database by querying only once any changes sending them to message broker (rabbitMQ) and updating redis using another Golang consumer.
• To ensure all APIs build were robust each api had unit tests done. For Golang APIs i used the concept of Interphase to create the test which doesn't need to mock data to create test.
• I was tasked to create virtual games for our betting platform odibets. For this i needed to integrate with third party feeds provider in our case our virtual game provider is Kiron. The problem we had was virtual games offer very heavy Iframes that do not work well on smart phones which represent 90 % of our clients. We had to find a way to provide virtual games on html files that works perfectly on smart phones. Kiron was the answer, we had the game feeds so we just had to find a way to display it to clients, visit https://odibets.com/league. This is the best virtual games in Africa.When developing the platform one of the challenge was to process data quickly because the entire match lasts for 30 seconds and in some cases process client bet before the 30 seconds are over.
• I do a lot of maintenance on the project am assigned to avoid issues like database slowing down because of to much data.
