A MongoDB Case Study
Turbine provides backend support for WB Games’ WBPlay service, which powers several titles including the recently announced Batman: Arkham Underworld and an upcoming mobile title based on the television series Game of Thrones. Turbine has built this service on MongoDB to store the game state of individual gamers, such as score, current level, and game assets. The service is also used to match players to one another in real time for online player-to-player games. Turbine designed the service to be used by any future WB Game title so that new games don’t have to re-write their own persistence layer.
