Agones
Dedicated Game Server Hosting and Scaling for Multiplayer Games
Multiplayer dedicated game servers anywhere. An open source, batteries-included, multiplayer dedicated game server scaling and orchestration platform that can run anywhere Kubernetes can run. Define and manage groups of ready-game servers through YAML configuration or API calls. Integrated SDK for managing game server lifecycle, health and configuration. Integration with OpenCensus for platform-independent game server metrics and monitoring dashboards. Agones replaces usual bespoke or proprietary cluster management and game server scaling solutions with a Kubernetes cluster that includes the Agones custom Kubernetes Controller and matching Custom Resource Definitions for GameServers, Fleets and more. With Agones, Kubernetes gets native abilities to create, run, manage and scale dedicated game server processes within Kubernetes clusters using standard Kubernetes tooling and APIs. This model also allows any matchmaker to interact directly with Agones via the Kubernetes API.
