Abstract

ESPN.com and its related digital properties serve tens of thousands of requests per second from sports fans around the world.  Learn how they use a combination of page- and application-level caching to do so with extremely low latency and a slim hardware footprint.  Find out about the technology stack that allows stats and scores to get from the field to the web -- usually before they even show up on your TV.  Deep dive on various critical pieces of the ESPN technology stack including: live scoring "push" updates; dynamic content management; and personalized preferences that follow you on the site, your phone, or your TV. Finally, learn how ESPN is advancing the fan experience with cache push and XMPP.
