Hi people! My questions are basic, but I prefer to ask them, to have more context and to have a better understanding of your requirement:
- Why you need a database? What are the use cases? I could imagine a game, based on chat messages, that don't need a database; it can distributed the message to the clients, and it can have an in-memory state of the game (one server instance per game, sticky assigned at begin of the game, maybe using a hash mapping from game id to server id to manage the game; I presume the servers can be identified... etc... etc...). Do you need a database to keep the CURRENT game state? To save the game history AT END? To keep the score of the players?
