Case Study: PennyPop achieves rapid, scalable BattleCamp deployment with EngineYard

PennyPop - Customer Case Study

PennyPop, the team behind the mobile game BattleCamp, needed a cloud application management platform to keep a secure, reliable infrastructure without hiring a full-time systems administrator. Using EngineYard, they wanted to rapidly deploy and scale their Ruby-based backend on AWS while staying focused on building features and gameplay instead of managing servers.

EngineYard provided the out-of-the-box deployment, configuration, and scaling support PennyPop needed for both its Rails API and real-time “Virtual World” cluster. The result was a Ruby backend processing about 40,000 requests per minute, helping PennyPop meet growing player demand with a small team while maintaining fast feature delivery and responsive gameplay.
