  1. Not Waving but Drowning SpyParty Multiplayer Beta Server Architecture Chris Hecker - SpyParty.com

  2. First, my demo…

  3. What the hell am I doing?

  4. Oh, by the way, you should ignore everything I’m about to say…

  5. Anyway, ignoring that elephant…

  6. “AAA Indie Games”

  7. “AAA Indie Games” Polished to Perfection Clearly Contain Lots of Love Highly Anticipated Before Launch

  8. My Goals For SpyParty’s Beta Infrastructure Polished Secure Scalable Flexible Are these the right goals?

  9. Polished (or, at least, able to be polished) Single-Sign-On Auto-discovery of Lobby Server(s) NAT Punchthrough, Relay Fallback, etc. Personalized Beta Homepage Ajax Forms, Private Forums, Bug Reporting & Feature Requests, etc.

  10. Secure No DIY Security! Single-Sign-On AuthN & AuthZ AuthN ClientServer & ClientClient https, TLS, revokable certs, timed downloads, etc. NB. this does not mean “unhackable” or “unwarezable”; certainly no DRM!

  11. Scalable Very Few Centralized Services Centralized Services Replicatable, Few Writes Run in the Cloud, Load Balanced Load Test Everything!!!Assume Nothing. Incremental Roll-out

  12. Flexible Where it sucks, know that I can fix it. Don’t be afraid to patch existing libraries.

  13. Some of the Components Amazon AWSS3, CF, EC2, SDB MIT Kerberos OpenLDAP PayPal IPN HMACOpenSSL UMich CoSign libjingle Perl, PHP, JS, C, bash, elisp, whatever! httpdvarnish

  14. Some questions… Why do all this yourself? Why not use Steam/XBLA/PSN/etc? Why not start with the “MVP” and iterate?
