Federation Management Features
Race-day timing, broadcast overlays, and federation operations — from entries through live results
Native Timing Desk
Fullscreen timing on your federation domain — no separate SaaS login. Officials pick races from the sidebar, time on video or by hand, mark DNS/DNF/DSQ, and publish to official results and the public PWA.
- Video finish with lane grid, camera or clip import, and photofinish review
- Manual sprint timing, sound/mic start, and DNS/DNF/DSQ
- Starter and finish official phones with a shared gun and clock
- Live publish or Backup desk archive, then one-click sync to results
- ALGE / timing-file import still supported
Video timing mode — Men U16 K1 200m heat with lane grid and photo background.
Stream Studio
Staff console plus a fixed 1920×1080 transparent overlay URL for OBS, Wirecast, or TV. Camera stays in OBS; RaceManager supplies branded race graphics. Two competitions can stream at once via separate overlay URLs.
- Schedule and heat graphics — lanes, crews, clubs, unofficial/official labels
- Overlay stopwatch synced to the Timing Desk gun
- Drag-and-place layout, colours, and tenant branding per competition
- Parallel events = parallel overlay URLs
- Typical setup: camera in OBS + Browser Source (no video ingest in RaceManager)
Heat overlay for OBS — unofficial results, Timing Desk clock, and federation branding.
Federation Isolation
Country domains and schema-per-federation isolation, with branding, settings, and data kept strictly separate.
Athlete Management
Athlete profiles, club affiliations, licenses, and performance tracking across all federation competitions.
Competition Management
Scheduling, entries, heats, progression editor, publishing, and rankings — from registration through finals.
Live Results PWA
Installable public results app with live updates and push notifications — built for venue-scale race-day traffic.
Sprint, Polo & Kayak Cross
Sprint is core. Optional Kayak Polo and Kayak Cross modules add tournaments, brackets, and discipline-specific results.
Global Ready
English, Norwegian, Swedish and Danish, plus international competitions with multi-federation entries.
Active Federations
Currently serving 3 federations across 3 countries
Infrastructure Overview
Production-grade architecture — request flow, multi-tenant isolation, performance layers and integrations. Built for national federations that need reliability, security and room to scale.
Designed to embed alongside membership and finance systems.
Production-proven
Three national federations live on dedicated country domains — Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
Championship-ready
Native timing desk, Stream Studio overlays, ALGE import, entries, heats, live results, rankings and public PWA.
EU-hosted & isolated
GDPR-friendly hosting in Stockholm with strict per-federation data isolation.
Built for peak load
Edge caching, Redis and rate protection for venue-scale public results traffic.
API-first
OpenAPI-documented REST API, webhooks and export pipelines for integrators.
Documented & transferable
200+ page in-product manual, operator runbooks and structured platform transfer programme.
Request Flow
Service Stack
| Service | Role |
|---|---|
| Nginx | TLS termination, static assets, reverse proxy |
| Varnish | HTTP cache for public pages and API responses |
| FastAPI | Async API and server-rendered admin UI |
| React PWA | Progressive web app for athletes and officials |
| PostgreSQL | Primary database with schema-per-federation isolation |
| Redis | Caching, rate limiting and session helpers |
Hosting & Operations
- European cloud VPS (Stockholm) — GDPR-friendly data residency
- Let's Encrypt TLS on all federation and platform domains
- Daily encrypted database backups to EU object storage (30-day retention)
- Docker Compose orchestration with zero-downtime hot deploys
- Built-in health checks, SSL monitoring and platform diagnostics
Isolation Model
Every request carries a Host header (e.g. racemanager.no).
Platform middleware resolves the federation from that domain and routes all database
queries to the correct isolated schema — full data separation without separate servers
per federation.
Custom country domains (e.g. racemanager.dk) with branded login and cookie isolation.
Smart Routing
| Traffic | Handling |
|---|---|
/static, uploads | Served directly at the edge — fast, cacheable |
/app/* PWA | Cached SPA assets; offline-capable service worker |
/api/public/results | Edge + Redis cache for live results under load |
/admin, auth | Direct to app — session-safe, never cached |
| Country domains | Each federation on its own TLD with 301 aliases from legacy subdomains |
Live Federation Deployments
Multi-Layer Caching
| Layer | Use case | Policy |
|---|---|---|
| Varnish | Public results API, competition lists | Short TTL with grace period; purged on result updates |
| Varnish | PWA static assets | Long-lived immutable cache (content-hashed filenames) |
| Redis | Results payloads & version polling | Sub-minute TTL; keeps venues responsive during peak load |
| Nginx | Static files & uploads | Days-weeks cache; deploy cache-busting on JS/CSS |
| Browser | PWA service worker | Offline-first for installed apps at the venue |
Rate Protection
Login and API endpoints are rate-limited at the edge and application layer to protect against abuse while keeping public results pages fast during major events.
- Separate limits for auth, general API and public results
- Connection caps on high-traffic results endpoints
- Fail-open auth continuity if cache layer is degraded
Observability
Operators get real-time platform pulse: health endpoints, tenant traffic analytics, backup status, SSL expiry and automated self-checks — all from the admin dashboard.
- Database + Redis health in every deploy gate
- GeoIP traffic breakdown per federation
- PDF export engine self-heals on deploy
Per-federation license payments with webhook-driven activation. Test and live modes supported.
Verification, notifications and password reset via Resend with SendGrid fallback.
Optional AI help desk per tenant with credit-based usage tracking.
Browser push notifications for installed PWA users at competitions.
Country and city breakdown in federation traffic monitoring.
OpenAPI-documented REST API, Excel import/export and webhook endpoints for custom integrations.
Transparent 1920×1080 Browser Source overlays for OBS, Wirecast or TV. Overlay clock follows the Timing Desk gun.
