Challenges
The major challenge that we faced while developing this site was how to
get data from other sites so that all odds could be shown in different
scenarios. The designing of the site was also a challenge as the client
was very particular about Alignment of controls &other design
issues etc, Database of the site gets quite heavy with time.
Solution
In order to get data from different sites we created a web service that
fetches data from other sites in XML format and then we parse this data
& save it in our site database for showing odds in different
scenarios. We used pixel ruler to solve design related issues. To stop
database growing large, we shifted the data of the expired/already
happened events to another database so that only data of events which
are supposed to happen is there.
