Over 200k developers use Nakama - the open-source distributed game server built by Heroic Labs. Over 150 million game players have touched this infrastructure since Heroic Labs began development in 2015. And over $300M in revenue has been raked in by games that Nakama supports.

In this interview with Chris Molozian (founder of Heroic Labs) and Tom Glenn (Heroic Labs software engineer), we’re going to dig deep into the architecture of social and multiplayer games that work effortlessly at a massive scale.

The conversation will address distributed systems insights and gaming-specific architectural insights. We’ll be sure to cover:

• How to scale games for millions of players
• How Heroic Labs built fault-tolerant distributed architecture
• Why Heroic Labs decided to build on CockroachDB

This session will be around 30-45 minutes long. As always, we want it to be an active discussion and we look forward to your participation… bring questions!
