Gaming Site Can Scale to 250,000 Requests Per Second and Improve Player Experience

Online digital entertainment company bwin.party provides online gaming and other offerings to almost 2 million people. Because the organization needed a better ability to support rapid business growth and improve website performance, it deployed an in-memory OnLine Transaction Processing (OLTP) solution in Microsoft SQL Server 2014. The company can now handle 250,000 requests per second and can offer players a faster, smoother gaming experience. bwin.party also expects to save as much as US$100,000 on hardware costs and is increasing revenue.
