The Catapult Framework

Catapult provides the necessary framework to create an online community for your game title. Catapult provides game developers with a suite of tools to process, store, and retrieve any information from within a game.

Catapult is a fully customizable solution. There are no pre-existing constraints to fit your data into. Our engine allows us to build new features and functionality that are custom to your title quickly and easily.

In addition to providing compelling gameplay information to players in-game, Catapult provides a vibrant community around that content on the Web. This web environment is automatically created when you start using Catapult, and is later customized to enhance the gamer's experience.

The Catapult framework consists of the following features:

• An on-demand, high-level interface using a custom-tailored XML or binary-packed protocol, making in-game implementation quick and easy.
• A multi-tiered caching system that keeps the system fast every step of the way.
• A service-oriented architecture that allows your system to scale to any size - from thousands to millions of users.
• AgoraRank, our proprietary player ranking system, which allows real-time, worldwide rankings and scoreboards, driven by the latest research in player skill calculation.
• An automatic, dynamically-populated web presence with the ability to add features on-demand.
• A robust, multi-tiered security model using industry-standard encryption and authentication for all communications.
• A development dashboard that includes real-time error reporting, logs, and product documentation.
