Case Study

Building a Streaming App Development Platform

A staff-augmentation project led to a new, SPAN-designed, device-independent application development platform that’s halved development times.

Challenge

SPAN was tasked with creating a way for Major League Baseball Advanced Media (MLBAM) to rapidly develop reliable, high-quality consumer streaming applications for multiple entertainment and sports properties and deploy the apps across multiple devices.

Solution

We partnered with MLBAM to design and develop a platform that has transformed how MLBAM streaming apps are built–including the HBO Now and WWE applications. 

Results

We’ve transformed the MLBAM approach to streaming application development, increasing developer productivity, accelerating new-app creation, and greatly reducing testing and maintenance requirements. These solutions are still being used today both at MLBAM and Disney+.
