Esports Platform for Logitech
Ragebite engineered PlayBeyond from the ground up, creating a feature-rich platform that supported tournaments, leagues, and player engagement for Logitech's esports initiative.
Building Logitech's Vision for Competitive Gaming
Following Logitech's acquisition of PlayBeyond, Ragebite was tasked with building a complete esports ecosystem. The project spanned nearly three years, resulting in a platform that hosted hundreds of events and engaged thousands of players. Ragebite developed the entire system, from user authentication to tournament management, using a microservice architecture and modern tech stack. The platform integrated with multiple games and Logitech's existing systems, creating an extensive esports experience.
PlayBeyond was built using a robust tech stack designed for scalability and performance. The frontend utilized React, while the backend was powered by NestJS and Node.js. Real-time features were implemented using Socket.io. The system used a microservice architecture containerized with Docker and orchestrated by Kubernetes. Data management relied on MongoDB, Redis, and Memcache. The entire infrastructure was set up on Linode Kubernetes Engine, with Grafana and Prometheus for monitoring. Security was ensured through partnerships with HackerOne, while UserSnap and Sentry were used for user feedback and error monitoring respectively.
PlayBeyond offered an extensive set of features designed to engage players, facilitate competitions, and create a vibrant esports community. From user management to tournament organization, each feature was crafted to enhance the competitive gaming experience.
