Ticketing / Event Platform (Next.js, Stripe, PostgreSQL, Redis, S3, TypeScript) overview

An event ticketing and management platform using Next.js for SEO-optimized event discovery pages, interactive seat maps, and a checkout flow. Stripe handles ticket purchases, refunds, and organizer payouts via Connect. PostgreSQL stores events, venues, seat inventories, and order histories. Redis manages seat hold locks during checkout to prevent overselling and caches event listing pages for high-traffic on-sale moments. S3 stores event images, PDF tickets, and QR code assets for mobile entry scanning. TypeScript ensures end-to-end type safety from database models to API responses to React components. Targeted at ticketing startups and venue operators. The tradeoff is the extreme concurrency challenge during popular on-sales and the complexity of venue-specific seating configurations.
