High-demand Ticket Sale Deployment

Where a ticketing system runs to survive a big on-sale: waiting room at the CDN edge, autoscaled services, and databases sized for the spike.

What this diagram shows

  • The waiting room runs at the CDN edge, in front of everything
  • Services scale out ahead of the announced on-sale time
  • Seat holds live in Redis, orders in a database cluster

Prompt used

Deployment for a high-demand ticket sale on AWS: Cloudflare runs the virtual waiting room and bot protection at the edge. Behind it an Application Load Balancer sends traffic to EKS, where catalogue, inventory and order services are pre-scaled before the on-sale. ElastiCache Redis holds seats; Aurora PostgreSQL with read replicas stores orders. SQS queues ticket delivery emails.
