摘要: Massively Multiuser Virtual Environments (MMVEs) are attracting millions of players from all over the world. Currently used Client/Server infrastructures and technologies reaching their limits flexibility scalability. We propose an approach that combines technological advantages two different paradigms, namely P2P networking Cloud Computing. Our proposal leverages known techniques like Nodes consistent hashing, as well separate overlays for purposes, e.g. interest object management. combining these with definition a specific role in overlay Cloud-based, trusted resources. This enables distribution MMVE on top mix user The solution outlined allows building key-value distributed storage systems can resize at run-time (elasticity) provide scalability load balancing features to platform.
