About Super Evil Megacorp and Couchbase

Super Evil Megacorp has the simple, yet ambitious goal of providing the best online and mobile gaming experience in the world. Couchbase became an essential part of that quest when Super Evil Megacorp’s previous platform reached maximum capacity. If any game experiences lag or downtime, it can be disastrous because players are notoriously quick to jump to the competition when games falter. This became a real risk for Super Evil Megacorp because their platform was extremely difficult to scale. Couchbase proved to be the perfect solution. It not only delivered sub-millisecond latency while getting back more data than the previous platform, but it also enabled Super Evil Megacorp to migrate their game modules and player accounts without any downtime. Now, using Couchbase’s Multi-Dimensional Scaling, the company can flexibly grow its architecture however and whenever it needs to. Because they can now use commodity hardware, the company expects to cut its database costs by 60%-70%. And because their core team can now spend more time on innovation instead of managing crises, they’re a giant step closer to revolutionizing the gaming industry.
