Case Study: Hadean helps CCP Games improve performance and scale multiplayer gaming with Microsoft Azure

Hadean helps EVE Online developer CCP Games realize its groundbreaking vision with Azure

Hadean worked with CCP Games, the developer of EVE Online, to overcome the limits of the game’s aging architecture and support a rapidly growing global player base. The challenge was to improve performance, reduce latency, and handle thousands of concurrent users in a real-time multiplayer environment using Microsoft Azure and Azure PlayFab.

Hadean implemented its Aether Engine on Microsoft Azure, adding Azure PlayFab for authentication and scaling the experience through multiple live test phases. Microsoft Azure helped deliver a playable demo, EVE: Aether Wars, that peaked at 10,412 concurrent users, supported more than 30,000 simultaneous sign-ups in stress tests, and reduced egress costs by more than 100 times while improving performance and dynamic scaling.
