Realtime Platform Architecture

Platform architecture linking Flutter mobile applications, Laravel 11 backend services, MySQL relational storage, Redis data tier, and WebSockets / Pusher realtime channels.

TECHNICAL ARCHITECTURE

API services and realtime communication connect mobile play with platform operations.

The source architecture connects the Flutter mobile client to Laravel backend services through an API layer, with MySQL and Redis in the platform data tier and WebSockets/Pusher supporting realtime multiplayer communication. Payment, notification and administrative surfaces sit around that core.

Selected Route: API Service FlowProtocol: Stateless API ↔ MySQL Persistence

Mobile client communicates with Laravel backend services via API for authentication, catalog queries, and profile data.

Core Architectural Specifications (Proposed Reference Pattern)

Communication Topology

API layer handles stateless account and catalog requests, while WebSockets / Pusher channels manage stateful in-game turn events and room broadcasts.

Redis Platform Data Tier

Redis provides in-memory session coordination, presence tracking, and ephemeral rate-limiting counters across worker nodes.

Relational Data Persistence

MySQL maintains relational persistence with transactional consistency for player accounts, match history, and administrative review records.
