Executive Project Context

EduLearn required a high-scale video learning infrastructure capable of streaming HD video lectures to over 150,000 students worldwide across varying mobile connection speeds.

⚠️ Initial Technical & Operational Challenges

1. Video Buffering on Low Bandwidth

Standard MP4 video downloads caused buffering on 3G networks, leading to high course abandonment.

2. Database Lockups During Live Exams

Simultaneous quiz submissions by 5,000+ students during scheduled exams crashed legacy SQL servers.

3. Progress Sync Data Loss

Unreliable client state syncing resulted in lost certificate progress records.

💡 Architectural Solutions by codeYB

AWS CloudFront HLS Adaptive Streaming

Transcoded video assets into multi-bitrate HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) feeds for smooth 1080p to 360p playback.

PostgreSQL Read-Replicas & Redis Caching

Engineered decoupled read-replica clusters handling 20,000 quiz submissions per second.

Event-Driven Progress Sync Engine

Built an offline-resilient sync queue saving student timestamp progress every 5 seconds.
