We’re going to be really busy for the rest of the year as we’ve just won a large contract with our Industrial Control Client in Germany. We’ll be working on the systems that we’ve worked on for them before, adding new functionality and integrating The Server Framework into some applications that we haven’t worked on before.
The Linux port of The Server Framework is going really well and we now have a server and client system running on Linux using our custom reliable UDP network layer.
We’re currently working on a proof of concept Linux port of one of our more complex server systems for a client. This is interesting stuff and surprisingly easy. Most of our framework code ported pretty quickly and now runs nicely on a test Ubuntu 16.04 box as well as on Windows. We’re using CLion and CMake on Linux and this has provided a surprisingly familiar environment to work in. It’s very early days but things look good and I expect we’ll eventually do this work again properly and roll it out as part of The Server Framework.
We’re pleased to be working with Eonic Gaming in the development of the server for their Turf Battles Triumphus 3D MMORPG.
Eonic have selected us to replace their existing networking code with The Server Framework to improve the stability and performance of their server.
We’re pleased to be extending the M2M server that we developed for this client back in February last year.
They’re adding lots of interesting new functionality. Should be fun!
2014 already. Where does the time go?
We’re still very busy with work for our Industrial Control Client but since they needed to get us SC level security clearance for this project if we told you any more we’d have to kill you…
Our work for online gaming clients is diversifying a bit as the project we’ve been working on for our secretive Online Gaming Company matures into a solid cloud-based SAS gaming server and we start to work more with the recent influx of Korean games companies that are now using The Server Framework.
We are building a server for a security company who would prefer to remain nameless. The server will manage communication for networks of tens of thousands of smart alarm panels using The Server Framework. In addition to the M2M communication aspect, the server also manages the management control connections that are used to send data to and from the devices.
Once again the new year has started with us very busy with work for our Industrial Control Client but since they needed to get us SC level security clearance for this project if we told you any more we’d have to kill you…
We’re also looking forward to doing lots more work with our secretive Online Gaming Company. Their cloud-based SAS gaming server is doing well for them and their clients and we’re continuing to be closely involved with the ongoing development.
We’ve been retained by HTI Labs to provide ongoing technical consultancy, mentoring, and assistance for their consultants.
The year has kicked off to a very busy start for us with lots of work from our secretive Online Gaming Company. They’re doing a lot of work to enhance the product that we’ve helped them build so that it can run well in cloud environments for their clients and also form the core of their cloud-based service. Much of our current work for them is to do with server to server communications so that they can build a scalable system that can use resources in the cloud to grow on demand.
September already…
We’ve spent much of the time since the last Company News update working with our super secretive Online Gaming company to make their product even better.
We’ve also been updating The Server Framework’s WebSocket support for a couple of new Server Framework clients and generally improving performance for the 6.5 release of The Server Framework which is due real soon now.
In addition we’ve launched the LockExplorer website, but, to be honest, we’ve been too busy with The Server Framework to do all the writing and evangelising that we have planned for the existing LockExplorer tools, let alone finish the more advanced tools.
