Former GCP Podcast host Mark Mandel is our guest this week. He’s talking Google Cloud Game Servers, Agones, and more with Mark Mirchandani and guest host Stephanie Wong.
Mark explains how dedicated game servers work and why gaming has embraced the idea of dedicated servers. Online multiplayer gaming with its need for fast, consistent state sharing among players benefits from dedicated servers and offers cheating mitigation and reduced latency, as well as development flexibility.
