TikTok Interactive
A live-stream interactivity bridge: a server and bridge layer that turn viewer actions into real-time events.
Runs natively — not a browser app
Ask me about this
The problem
Live interactivity has to survive burst traffic without falling behind the stream.
How I approached it
A dedicated bridge decouples ingest from the consumer, so a spike in viewer events queues rather than blocking the render path.
The outcome
Viewer input reflected live without desync.
