I work for a consulting company, the client I am working with is a bank. They have more than 100 external workers from my company, and there's that many too from at least 4 other companies. They don't have, at all, twitch's bandwidth or requirements and they still need these numbers, and you know they do need them since if they didn't, they would simply ask for less workers, us being contractors and so on.

The consulting company I worked before also was for another bank, same story.

Storage, management, distribution and transformation of the huge amount of data that twitch handles would require a higher number of devs, for sure.
