Updated infrastructure
Last week we've relocated and updated our infrastructure, we didn't developed any new feature about the game but it is three times faster now! :)
So, what is the changes?
We've upgraded the operating system of the Cassandra nodes from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7, updated the version of the Cassandra from 2.1.3 to 2.1.5 and updated the Java version from 7 to 8. It was major update! We've upgraded some componens of the Wildfly nodes, it was a minor update.
We've relocated all of our nodes from Franfurt to Amsterdam (EU region) and from Silicon Valley to Miami (US region); the selection of the new locations are based on the usage statistics of the game, 40% of players are comes from (west) EU another 40% of players are comes from (east) US and the rest of players are comes from the rest of the world. It was a majority of the work and we did it without an outage!
So, we are re-focusing on the development! Thank you for the patience... :)
