Problem

A national-scale media campaign needed contest entry, validation and drawing to run reliably under broadcast-driven spikes — traffic could go from idle to hundreds of QPS within a minute of an on-air mention.

Approach
  • /01Laravel queues + Redis for write-heavy entry handling so the request path stayed fast under load.
  • /02Cron-driven drawing and reconciliation jobs decoupled from user requests, with idempotent logic so retries are safe.
  • /03AI-assisted coupon validation to cut manual review on edge cases.
Impact
  • →Held up through campaign-driven spikes without service degradation.
  • →Manual validation effort dropped sharply once the AI assist kicked in on suspicious entries.
