The main objective was to develop a solution which showed the same Front-End component, but differ in structure and content, depending on the selected city. In other words, it should logically be several local websites in one domain. Our developers have solved this problem by the help of Drupal CMS with multi-site approach and deployed on Acquia hosting platform. Thus, the user can always see one site, regardless to whatever city he switched. The next task was to create a universal solution for broadcast video materials, which wouldn’t overload the website, because the main channel slope made naturally on the video content and in very large scale. Our developers solved this problem with the help of integration on the website of third-party API from Kaltura – video cloud platform. This solution greatly simplifies the load on the site and made it possible to load it instantly. Also we used many other third-party open API for weather, the satellite, etc., it gave users the ability to see the situation with the traffic and weather conditions in real time, in each selected city. Implemented Features:

• Uploading breaking news from third-party Feeds.
• Situations on roads (broadcasting via the satellite).
• Weather in real-time.
• Submit New Tip.
• Selection of the region from any of the cities.
• Share function in a social network.
• etc.

Drupal, PHP, HTML5, Javascript
