Purpose of the product

Over 18 months, Streamify partnered with our team to design and deploy an AI-driven recommendation engine aimed at enhancing viewer engagement and reducing churn. Leveraging collaborative filtering and content-based algorithms, we built a system capable of processing millions of user interactions daily, delivering hyper-personalized content suggestions. 

By migrating from legacy infrastructure to AWS cloud-native services and Kubernetes orchestration, Streamify achieved a 35% increase in average session time while maintaining zero downtime during scaling .

Project Description

Streamify, a growing media streaming platform, sought to compete with industry giants by improving content discovery for its 5 million subscribers. Our team of data scientists and engineers modernized their recommendation system using advanced AI/ML techniques.  

We implemented a hybrid approach combining collaborative filtering (to analyze user behavior patterns) and content-based filtering (to categorize metadata like genre, director, and actor preferences). This enabled real-time personalization, ensuring users received tailored recommendations based on both historical data and contextual signals (e.g., time of day, device type) .  

The solution integrated Apache Spark for large-scale data processing and Kafka for real-time event streaming. By containerizing services with Kubernetes and automating CI/CD pipelines via GitLab, we reduced deployment times by 40% and improved system reliability.  

Results Delivered

35% increase in average user session time.
