Cloud Foundry being used for an EU social learning games platform
Christopher Frost
I stumbled across this and though other people might be interested.
ProSocialLearn is an EU funded project to help children learn positive social skills through social gaming. Here is a quote from there "System Requirements and Architecture" document available on there website. "Continuing up the technology architecture stack, PSL is still exploring a number of open alternatives for building up a robust PaaS layer. However, during the editing of this deliverable, the ProSocialLearn consortium is already beginning to investigate the Cloud Foundry community (almost a de facto standard for Platform as a Service environments). PSL is planning to integrate the Cloud Foundry technology into the added value services of PSL. Cloud Foundry provides a platform that allows game providers and game operators to deploy, manage and scale cloud-based games quickly, and easily. " They have a Git repo where they are working on a NodeJS based client for the CF API and a Node based CF web console. This work seems to be being done by one developer from one of the consortium members based in Spain, Madrid. They have also released a proof of concept game as well but it doesn't look like they have formally launched yet. Links. http://prosociallearn.eu/ https://github.com/prosociallearnEU Chris.
