  Overview: When a leading online gaming company (USA-based) started facing frequent crashes, lagging performance, and scaling challenges, they turned to MagnusMinds for help. Their app and website key to delivering gaming content were suffering from slow operations, frequent crashes, and unreliable reporting. With their growth ambitions at stake, the client needed a solution that would support high traffic, reduce downtime, and enable seamless expansion of their gaming offerings and real time updates.    Challenges:  Slow response times and frequent crashes hampered user experience, especially in Casino games during payment transactions.  Management could not access accurate and timely reports, in part due to flawed data sources and schema.  The platform had to accommodate about 10 million requests per day. Existing infrastructure couldn’t reliably support that.  To stay competitive, the client wanted to add new gaming providers (more games) without building out entirely new infrastructure.  Solution: MagnusMinds approached this challenge in phases: short-term fixes for immediate relief followed by long-term structural improvements.    Quick Fixes:  We optimized their existing SQL Server setup and few SQL queries to alleviate immediate database pressure. This bought time to design a more robust architecture.     Long-term architecture & performance overhaul  Decoupling Modules: Components that were all handled on a single server were separated so they can be deployed and scaled independently.  Load Balancing: Introduced AWS Load Balancers to distribute traffic and prevent any single point of overload.  Database Schema Optimization:   For operations: normalized schema to ensure data integrity and efficiency  For reporting: denormalized where useful to speed up queries and reduce complexity  Data consistency fixes: Ensured reports no longer rely on laggy or inconsistent log/history tables.    Gaming Providers Integration: Integrated 9 additional game providers (mentioned below) into the platform without requiring new core infrastructure.  Pragmatic Play  BNG (Booongo)  Dragoon Soft Game  BTi Sportsbook  Blaze Game  Spribe Game  Play’n GO Game  Jili Game  CQ9 Gaming    Infrastructure & Scaling Improvements:  Migrated/leveraged AWS services (EC2, RDS, etc.) to gain better scalability and availability.  Ensured the system could support growth: in metrics, capacity, and user demand.    Results & Impact: The platform collection grew from 150k to 600k (a four-fold increase).  Application is now functioning in auto-mode, delivering stable and consistent performance.  Downtime and crashes have been greatly reduced.  Reports are now accurate, timely, and useful for management decisions.  The client is satisfied, able to continue expanding the gaming catalog, and better positioned for further growth.    Conclusion: This case illustrates how tackling both immediate pain-points and investing in long-term architecture can transform a platform from struggling to scalable. By optimizing databases, decoupling services, integrating new game providers, and improving infrastructure, MagnusMinds helped its client not just survive but thrive.  If you’re facing performance bottlenecks, unreliable reporting, or limitations in scaling your gaming platform, reach out to MagnusMinds. We can help chart a roadmap to growth, stability, and better gaming experiences. 

Overview For our client, protecting sensitive data was their top priority. Their platform required masking Personally Identifiable Information (PII) across billions of records, but the existing process took nearly 70 hours to complete! This delay was a critical bottleneck for UAT environments where timely, secure data handling is essential.    The Challenges  Sequential queries slowing execution  Heavy reliance on updates causing locks and log overhead  Transaction log overload risking failures    Our Approach  It took several weeks of analysis, performance testing, and building client trust before our suggestions were applied initially in the UAT environment to ensure stability before production rollout.  Here’s how we tackled the problem:  Insert-over-Update Strategy – Reduced locking and log overhead by replacing costly updates with inserts  Parallel Processing – Broke down large tasks into smaller chunks for faster execution  Transaction Log Management – Avoided capacity issues and rollback failures  Query Optimization – Rewrote queries to leverage indexing and set-based operations  Set-Based Design – Eliminated loops and cursors to maximize performance    The Results  Processing time reduced from 70 hours to just 2 hours — a staggering 90% improvement  Enhanced reliability by stabilizing transaction logs  Delivered a scalable, secure solution ready for production    Key Takeaway  Speed and security go hand in hand. By leveraging deep SQL Server expertise, thorough analysis, and collaborative trust with the client, we transformed a time-consuming process into an efficient, reliable workflow.  At MagnusMinds, we partner with organizations to deliver smarter, faster, and more secure data solutions without compromising on compliance or stability.  If you're facing performance challenges or need expert guidance on data architecture and processing, let’s connect! 

Introduction In today’s fast-paced digital world, businesses need secure, scalable, and high-performing applications to stay competitive. Microsoft’s .NET framework has proven to be one of the most reliable platforms for building everything from dynamic websites to enterprise-grade software. Whether you’re a startup in the USA or an established UK enterprise, the right dot net development services can help you accelerate growth, reduce costs, and deliver exceptional digital experiences. What Are Dot Net Development Services?  Dot net development services involve building, deploying, and maintaining applications using Microsoft’s .NET framework and related technologies like ASP.NET, .NET Core, and Blazor. These services can include: Custom .NET application development  Web development with ASP.NET   Enterprise software solutions  Migration & modernization  Maintenance & support Why Choose .NET for Your Business?  The .NET framework offers several advantages for companies as follows:  Cross-platform compatibility Build applications that run seamlessly on Windows, Linux, and macOS.   High performance .NET Core is known for its fast execution and optimized memory usage.   Security Built-in authentication, encryption, and role-based access control. Built-in authentication, encryption, and role-based access control. We strengthen this further with advanced methods like JWT bearer tokens, OAuth/OpenID Connect integrations, and claims-based authorization. The layered approach ensures only verified users can access sensitive data while keeping performance and usability intact, as mentioned in our Secure Authentication and Authorization in .NET Core practices.   Scalability Easily handle growing traffic and data loads without performance loss.   Microsoft ecosystem integration Perfect for businesses already using Microsoft tools like Azure, Office 365, or Dynamics 365. Key Types of Dot Net Development Services  1. ASP.NET Development Services  ASP.NET enables businesses to create dynamic web applications that are secure, scalable, and high-performing.   2. Custom .NET Application Development  Every business has unique requirements. Custom development ensures you get exactly what you need, whether it’s a B2B portal, e-commerce platform, or enterprise software. 3. .NET Migration and Modernization  If you’re running older applications, upgrading to .NET Core can improve performance, security, and long-term maintainability. 4. Dedicated .NET Developers  Hiring dedicated .NET developers gives you the flexibility to scale your team without the overhead of in-house hiring. When building your web or API layer, we can leverage full-featured ASP.NET MVC controllers for structured and testable architectures, or opt for .NET 6’s Minimal APIs, which streamline setup with shorter syntax and quicker execution. The choice comes down to whether your project demands the organization and extensibility of MVC or the nimbleness and simplicity of Minimal APIs, each serving different scales and design preferences, and depending on your priorities.    Applications of .NET Development Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools E-commerce platforms Financial and accounting software Healthcare management systems Custom web and mobile apps How to Choose the Right Dot Net Development Company Check their portfolio – Look for projects similar to yours. Evaluate technical expertise – .NET Core, ASP.NET MVC, Blazor, Azure. Ask about security practices – Data protection, compliance, and encryption.
