Vp Platform Technology, Co-Founder, Technical Consultant
Rumble
Rumble creates and publishes compelling AAA games for mobile, web, and Facebook delivery that are free to play. Mark and his team developed the Rumple platform to enable AAA games to be successful without the game development teams having to worry about major services (commerce, telemetry, matchmaking, player presence, data persistence, and many others) or operations. Mark was also responsible for taking development and production IT from zero servers and no employees to hundreds of servers and more than fifty employees.The Rumble platform and operational infrastructure leverages Grails, MySQL, Kafka, Redis, Memcached, Hadoop, Python, Jabber, Git, Ganglia, and several other major system components. It is currently deployed on AWS infrastructure but is designed to work on other clouds or even on bare metal in a fully automated fashion.
