Fishlabs is a Hamburg-based developer and publisher of premium games for smartphones and tablets. They are building their next game, Galaxy on Fire - Alliances with a new approach to their cloud strategy. Fishlabs infrastructure architects are working with Google and
RightScale
to ensure maximum performance and uptime, key factors include:
Single Reference deployment that can be redeployed across iOS and Android platforms
Scalable Database layer, scaling the DB layer vertically and horizontally with slaves.
Compute Engine performance and stability, particularly in a high memory gaming scenario
Competitive pricing across compute and networking
Deep experience and knowledge of the gaming space
For this project, Fishlabs augmented their cloud strategy with the addition of Google to meet compute and DB needs and RightScale to provide consistent deployment across platforms. “With Google and RightScale we were able to provide Fishlabs a new level of performance and cloud deployment consistency for this new title” said Bruno Ciscato, Cloud Solutions Engineer at RightScale
“We’ve chosen to work with the Google Compute Engine and RightScale teams to meet our DB scaling and repeatable deployment requirements across platforms. Using GCE and RightScale, the team had a fully functional deployment up and running in a week, we’re enthusiastic about measuring results and performance as we head from beta to launch,” saod Uli Sesselmann, IT Supervisor at Fishlabs.
