Using Red Hat Data Grid to Power a Multi-Cloud Real-Time Game

The scavenger hunt game developed for the audience to play during the Red Hat Summit 2018 demo used Red Hat Data Grid as storage for everything except the pictures taken by the participants. Data was stored across three different cloud environments using cross-site replication. In this blog post, we will look at how data was flowing through the Data Grid and explain Data Grid features powering different aspects of the game's functionality.

In its simplest form, Data Grid exposes a key/value map API. This API was used throughout the game for storing and retrieving information such as game tasks, per-site active users, players, picture/task attempts (also called transactions), and scores.
