Apple hires top Netflix engineer for Apple TV + design

Apple TV +

There is nothing like having money. These days we are contemplating the economic bonanza of Apple with spectacular sales figures at the end of the year 2019. It seems that the new Disney + video platform is having some technical problems, and Apple has recovered in health.

Apple TV + does not seem to have such problems, mainly because its catalog is far inferior to those of Micky Mouse and its servers are not so much in demand. But taking into account that said television offer is going to increase in the coming months, Apple does not want to have problems. If Netflix, a veteran platform already, with a wide catalog of series and movies, has a solid and stable management software, then its creator is signed and the matter resolved.

As Apple TV + and Apple Arcade continue to grow with more content available on their platforms, Apple is also investing in their backend by hiring top-notch technical staff. He hasn't cut a hair and has signed one of Netflix's best engineers, Ruslan Meshenberg.

This news has been published today in Wall Street Journal. The article says that Apple already started designing its Massive Services years ago, such as Apple Maps, iCloud and Apple Music. With the entry of new services like Apple TV +, Apple Arcade and Apple News, the company does not want to have technical problems and it has made a great signing for its platforms that work on the internet.

The report also mentions the system failures suffered by the new Disney + streaming video platform. Although at the moment neither Apple TV + nor Apple Arcade have suffered such problems, the company wants to recover in health and trusts that Meshenberg build a solid and reliable infrastructure like Netflix's.

He points out that Meshenberg has enough experience to lead this new endeavor. At Netflix, he ran much of an infrastructure that ensures series and movies play smoothly, even now that the platform already reaches more than 50 countries with a transmission of more than one billion hours of programming a week.
