A team building a treasure hunt engine initially focused on scaling infrastructure using AWS Auto Scaling, Kubernetes, and custom load balancers but faced system stalls under high user load.

This change enabled handling a 300% increase in user traffic without stalls and reduced average response latency by 50%, significantly improving user experience and operational stability.
