Interview with Ivan Korkin, Head of Account Management at Kanggiten

After his successful participation at the HIPTHER Prague Summit 2026, we speak with Ivan Korkin, Head of Account Management at Kanggiten, to explore how real-world B2C operational experience can strengthen B2B platform stability in today’s high-demand iGaming environment — and why resilience, real-time monitoring, and proactive infrastructure design are becoming critical competitive differentiators.

Ivan, your discussion at HIPTHER Prague Summit focused on applying high-volume B2C operational lessons to B2B platform stability. From your perspective, what are the most overlooked insights that B2B providers can learn from real-world B2C environments?

The most overlooked insight is that B2B and B2C platforms do not require fundamentally different security and operational standards. In reality, the B2C experience differs mainly on the client side; the underlying security protocols needed to combat fraudsters, hackers, and bonus hunters remain exactly the same.

When designing platform architecture for long-term reliability, which core principles matter most today – and how has your approach evolved as traffic volumes and player expectations continue to rise?

The foundational principle is ensuring the platform is “Modular by Design”. Monolithic systems are simply too rigid for modern scaling. At Kanggiten, our platform is built from independent modules that communicate either through a shared data channel or via APIs. This ensures that if one module, like a tournament or bonus engine, gets overloaded, it does not bring down the entire platform; core functions like payments remain fully operational. This approach, called “graceful degradation,” keeps the platform reliable under pressure. Additionally, as expectations have risen, our approach has evolved to include self-healing capabilities, automatically restoring needed instances if a hardware failure occurs.

System resilience under load is a growing concern across the industry. What practical strategies should operators and suppliers implement to ensure performance remains consistent during peak demand moments?

Operators must utilize systems built for fast, automatic scaling without human intervention. When data volume grows, the platform should simply add more hardware on the fly. From a data hygiene perspective, peak loads often cause statistics to lag or duplicate. We prevent this by utilizing specialized columnar databases that scale horizontally for heavy analytical workloads. If a technical glitch sends the same data twice, our system recognizes it and refuses to double-count. Finally, resilience requires full system redundancy to achieve 99.9% uptime, ensuring there is zero single point of failure and that live database backups are hosted in physically separate data centers.

Kanggiten places strong emphasis on real-time analytics and monitoring. How do real-time metrics function as early-warning systems in modern iGaming infrastructure, and what signals should teams be watching most closely?

Real-time metrics are critical for identifying anomalies and root causes instantly. Many operators focus solely on technical metrics, but we closely watch business metrics like user registrations, deposits, bonus activations, and critical user chains. A server might appear healthy on a backend dashboard, but a sudden drop in these business metrics serves as an early-warning signal that issues are occurring on the user journey. Tracking these in real time prevents isolated technical glitches from turning into massive revenue losses.

Many teams still operate in reactive mode when incidents occur. What does a truly proactive issue-detection framework look like in 2026, and what cultural or technical shifts are required to get there?

A proactive framework utilizes dynamic product alerts and retrospective data analysis. Instead of waiting for a system crash, our alerting system compares the current volume of events against historical data—such as traffic from three weeks ago—to automatically determine if current metrics are normal or if human intervention is needed. Culturally, moving away from reactive firefighting requires a commitment to continuous testing; we run automated tests, manual checks, and cloud-based load testing before any code ever reaches production.

Looking ahead, as modular and full-stack platforms continue to evolve, what should operators prioritize now to ensure their infrastructure remains secure, scalable, and future-ready over the next three to five years?

Operators must prioritize a “provider-agnostic” approach to their infrastructure. Over the next few years, the ability to rapidly adapt to changing regulations and execute seamless, disruption-free migrations between cloud providers will be paramount. Security must also remain a top priority; operators should demand infrastructure that holds the highest-level PCI DSS certification (Level 1 v4.0) , where card data is encrypted with strong algorithms and in-transit data is secured using Sectigo and Google SSL certificates over TLS 1.2 or higher.

Kanggiten was the Silver Sponsor and Badge & Bracelet Sponsor at HIPTHER Prague Summit 2026. What key conversations did you have with operators and partners during the event, and what should the industry be watching next from your team?

We were delighted to speak with ambitious operators who demand speed, control, and performance without the bureaucracy of traditional platforms. We always want to discuss how our modular ecosystem allows businesses to launch in weeks, not months, and scale reliably under any load. As for what’s next, the industry should watch how Kanggiten continues to merge premium B2C conversion tactics with robust B2B infrastructure, delivering technology engineered specifically for measurable revenue growth and uncompromising stability.
