Supercell Leverages AWS for Seamless and Scalable Gaming Experience
By adopting Amazon Aurora, a MySQL-compatible database service, Supercell has significantly reduced downtime, ensuring an uninterrupted gaming experience for players.
Supercell, a leading mobile game company based in Helsinki, Finland, shares its experience of leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) to provide a seamless and scalable gaming experience for its 200 million monthly active users across six* globally launched games. By adopting Amazon Aurora, a MySQL-compatible database service, Supercell has significantly reduced downtime, ensuring an uninterrupted gaming experience for players. The ability to handle large-scale operations and testing environments with AWS has allowed Supercell to focus on developing features that delight their players of games like Clash of Clans, rather than troubleshooting hardware problems.
*Since filming this video, Supercell launched Squad Busters, its sixth globally launched game.
The less time we spend troubleshooting hardware problems, the more time we have for actually developing features in the game that our players want and love."
