Case Study: Ubisoft achieves global scalable multiplayer gaming with Microsoft Corporation Azure

Ubisoft - Customer Case Study

Ubisoft, the French gaming giant behind Rainbow Six Siege, needed a way to support a fast-growing global multiplayer game without being constrained by its own infrastructure. Using Microsoft Corporation’s Azure and Azure Storage, Ubisoft had to deliver low-latency performance for millions of players and thousands of concurrent matches while also simplifying operations for its development teams.

Microsoft Corporation’s Azure provided the elastic, globally distributed cloud infrastructure Ubisoft needed to run Rainbow Six Siege across Xbox, PC, and PS4 from a single development effort. The result was scalable gameplay for more than 3 million players a day, with Azure Autoscale helping maintain performance during demand spikes and enabling faster testing and release of new features.
