Description
Summary:In this paper we demonstrate how to integrate 3rd party services in serious games. We use message queue broker and micro-services in a publish/subscribe manner in order to use real-time 3rd party data into a serious game’s logic. First, we discuss the benefits of service oriented architecture. Then, we analyse and compare different message queues brokers in terms of data latency, throughput, fail-tolerance and scalability for the purpose of serious games. As a sequence, we apply those best practices from other domains in the field of Serious Games (SGs). Finally, we summarize the presented ideas and comparisons and draw conclusions.
