GigaSpaces Advantage For Gaming Platforms
- 1. James Liddle KamranYousaf The Space Based Advantage for Online Gaming
- 2. What is GigaSpaces XAP ?
- 4. End-end scale-out middleware for Web data, messaging and business logic
- 7. An SLA driven Architecture with automatic self healing
- 8. Decouples the application from the deployment environment
- 9. Supports open-source and standard development frameworks
- 11. Addresses the Challenges of how to: Scale application easily Get faster response times Have easier Development Have easier Deployment Have easier Monitoring Achieve Near-zero Downtime
- 12. How we do it Virtualized Web Tier dynamic load balancing, self-healing, basic caching Virtualized Business Tier auto deployment, simpler development and testing Virtualized Messaging lower latency, higher message reliability Virtualized Data Access dramatically lower latency, releases the data bottleneck which is often the main scalability barrier Virtualized Deployment Move manual process to SLA driven deployment
- 16. Redundancy doubles network traffic
- 21. Integration and designCache TCO 8
- 24. Manage data in memory
- 26. Collocate the servicesLogic Logic
- 27. Easier Development Integration with Spring Allowing developers to focus on improving the game Annotation or XML configuration your choice
- 28. Event Driven Messaging Layer
- 30. Client:
- 32. Easier Deployment Specify once how many machines are required by the application services and any other software or hardware dependencies. Subsequently, deploy services automatically to the grid of machines, at the push of a button. XAP continuously monitors the deployment and ensures that all dependencies are fulfilled. Provision more machines to priority services, fully automatically.
- 35. Minimum Latency (no network hops)
- 37. Unparalleled End-To-End Transaction Performance- Storing State- Register Orders- etc.
- 39. Fewer points of failure
- 40. Automated SLA driven failover/redundancy mechanism
- 43. Single monitoring and management engine
- 44. Automated, SLA-Driven deployment and management
- 46. Auto Scale Out
- 47. Smooth Handling of Peak Loads When an affiliate’s ad campaign hits big, or a major sporting event draws crowds of betters, GigaSpaces XAP makes sure your game handles the additional load without crashing or even slowing down Detects high loads and automatically scales out your application before it breaches its service level agreement (SLA). Automatically deploys more instances of the application on additional machines, when the existing machines approach critical levels of CPU, memory, or other indicators you define. User requests are transparently routed to the new machines – while the game continues.
- 48. Continuous Availability Hot-swap hardware maintenance – if a machine needs service, XAP can relocate live application instances to a different machine, with no service interruption. Automatic self healing – when your system’s SLA is compromised, XAP’s Service Manager immediately raises a new backup and loads it with live data, with no human intervention. Real-time game version upgrades – XAP can upgrade your application to a new version automatically, with no downtime, assuming no changes to data model.
- 49. Monitoring No need to manually hunt down middleware issues XAP monitors your entire system end-to-end, from the load balancer through to the messaging, business logic services and data. Track down problems to a particular service or application instance using the central management UI.
- 50. Ready For the Cloud XAP provides tight integration with cloud infrastructure services like Amazon EC2, with a full set of cloud tools Today – outsource testing and non-essential services to the cloud. Tomorrow – run production applications on the cloud and resell cloud services to your customers, with no migration effort.
- 51. Deploying on the Cloud Multi Tenant Application Provisioning Application Deployment Configuration 3 - Manage 1- Install 2 - Deploy Provision IaaS Provider (EC2, GoGrid, VMWhere, Citrix,..) Application Repository App A App B
- 53. 64/32 S,M,L,XL Images individually
- 54. Each machine dynamically install software packages
- 55. GSM responsible for deploying application packages to GSC machineGSM Machine UI Machine Web Jmeter IMDG Web Tomcat WWW Mirror IMDG Web Comp- Node IMDG Web Comp-Nodes LB Machine Database Machine Ext-Machine GSC Machines
- 56. Online OMS: Old System
- 57. Online OMS: SBA Enabled
- 59. A Scale-Out Application Server ideally suited for today’s Enterprise Environments and ISV’s building Grid, SaaS and Cloud enabled offerings
- 60. Cloud tools and packaging Public Cloud providers (i.e. EC2, Flexiscale, GoGrid, Joyent and more).
Notes de l'éditeur
- Most messaging systems use the disk for resiliencyOn the same HW, this provides 5-10 less throughput than reliable memory based solution like GigaSpaces, with twice the latency at best And it’s much harder to scale since it uses a central diskDisk access can only be so fastA few hundred inserts/sec for MySql on commodity HW (when you actually sync to disk on every commit)You will need to scale by sharding and/or expensive storage systems that can stripe and partition the data for youClustering the database actually slows you down
- CHEAPER, FASTER GAME EVOLUTION
- STRONGER GAME FEATURESWith XAP, middleware is no longer a barrier to providing the best game features to your customers:• Unlimited scalability for data-intensive features – XAP puts an In-Memory Data Grid in front of the database and frees the data bottleneck. • No limit on CPU-intensive features – XAP can process these features simultaneously on multiple machines, with automatic scaling. • Bottom line – beat the competition without huge investments in hardware and middleware.
