This week, The Internet Report team and special guest Dave Anderson—a tech industry veteran and co-host of "A Very Melbourne Podcast," which covers the Australian Football League and more—are chatting about how to assure great digital experiences at major sporting events.
Large sporting events are always logistically complex, and today that’s even more the case with digital technology permeating every part of operational and experience delivery. And due to the real-time nature of live sports, any glitch can have a big impact on fan experiences—whether they’re at the stadium or joining in from their living rooms.
For the teams managing this web of digital services that brings sports content to global audiences, it’s vital to guard against potential issues, as well as quickly detect and remediate problems when they do occur.
