Ye Le recently discovered a key problem, that is, as the number of players increases, the server seems to be a little overloaded. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Nowadays, mobile games can only accommodate about 10,000 players on a server, and Aurora Games has always chosen to build a server group with ten servers to be responsible for a large area of the game.

But even so, not only did the pressure on the server not decrease, but instead spent a lot of money on the purchase of the server.

The server is not only the basis for the game to run, but once the server is overloaded, then all players will definitely feel the lag and the manifestation of a part of the game malfunctioning.

Especially if the server is not enough to allow a large group of players to gather together, then the online game will become less lively, and most Chinese players who play online games like the lively area, because there are more people here and it is more interesting to play.

There are often people everywhere, and a fight is a huge scene, not to mention how cool it is!

........

"Cheng Nan, have you ever thought about changing servers?"

"Change servers? It's really a lot of pressure on servers now, but I'm afraid it's not cost-effective to spend so much money to buy a new one. ”

"I'm not talking about ordinary servers, you know supercomputers, right? I'm going to buy a few of them and put them in the data center in the future. ”

Cheng Nan was so frightened that he threw the teacup on the ground, and he looked at Ye Le with an incredulous expression, as if he wanted to see if Ye Le had taken the wrong medicine.

Is he a desktop computer when he thinks supercomputers, and he can buy them as long as he wants to?

Supercomputers are hard to come by, and even the state didn't allow private individuals to buy them before!

Fortunately, the policy was relaxed in the first two years, but even if the state allows private companies to buy supercomputers, the price of that thing is too expensive!

It hurts to buy one Cheng Nan, let alone buy several!

Although Aurora Games is now rich, with a net profit of nearly one billion yuan in a quarter, it wants to buy a supercomputer, but it is more than enough to buy a supercomputer.

Let's talk about the development of the World Game City first, which costs money everywhere, and nearly 100 million yuan is filled in every month.

Secondly, this is just one of the expenditure items, and the Aurora game has to take care of all four sides, and it has to spend a lot of money every month.

Well, he admits that supercomputer stuff is amazing, but he can't mess around!

Ye Le, on the other hand, has his own ideas, even if a supercomputer is expensive, he is willing to spend money to buy it.

Many people have only heard of how powerful supercomputers are, but when they really understand supercomputers, they will find that they are not only powerful, but they are simply amazing!

A supercomputer is usually a computer composed of hundreds, thousands, or even more processors (machines) that can calculate large, complex tasks that ordinary PCs and servers cannot do.

If the degree of computing of an ordinary computer is compared to the degree of walking of an adult, then the supercomputer has reached the degree of a rocket.

Under the premise of such a degree of computing, it is possible to predict and explain natural phenomena that were previously impossible to experiment through numerical simulations.

In this world, the first place in the world's top ten supercomputers is "Banner", located in a national laboratory in New York State, USA, which is also an IBM system computer with 3013 trillion operations per second.

It is also the world's first supercomputer to break 3,000 trillion operations per second, even if tens of thousands of high-performance servers are not enough.

Above all, it employs a range of computer- and business-specific technologies, often primarily for complex and covert evaluations of America's secret weapons, and more recently for gaming.

Huaxia's "Longteng" supercomputer, ranked second, its system peak 'performance' can be 2873 trillion operations per second, if it is given to Ye Le, it is estimated that there will be no need to worry about server problems in the future.

And the worst of the world's top 100 supercomputers are priced at billions of dollars, and Aurora Games simply can't afford to buy such a supercomputer today, and of course no one else will sell this kind of supercomputer.

Domestic private enterprises can only buy civilian supercomputers with slightly worse performance, and the best performance is at least hundreds of millions of yuan, Ye Le of course will not charge a large amount of money to buy a supercomputer at this price, the kind of cost-effective civilian supercomputer is very good, and the price of one is only tens of millions.

Their computing speed is not low, about 3 trillion operations per second, and just one can guarantee the operation of dozens of games.

At that time, even if one of the games can accommodate tens of millions of people online at the same time in one area, it will be no problem.

But Cheng Nan disagreed, only to see him dissuade, "Supercomputer, that thing is too expensive, and it may bring a great burden to the company." ”

Cheng Nan shook his head a little helplessly, he had heard Ye Le's intention just now, and he had to be reminded.

Then another idea was proposed: "Why don't we use "cloud computing", and then it will be fine." ”

Ye Le smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "You put "cloud computing", it is too powerful, I have specially investigated it before. Today's cloud computing technology is not enough to replace servers. ”

Cheng Nan does have a general understanding of cloud computing, but he has not investigated his details, so he felt a little puzzled at this time, "Why do you say that?"

"While it is possible to use the player's computer and internet speed to reduce the load on the server, it is only a lightening, not a complete replacement. ”

"Also, Hungry Shark Evolution does achieve a server that can accommodate up to 5 million players online at the same time, but we use hundreds of servers in each country to connect the data, and I believe you know how much it costs. ”

Ye Le patiently explained to Cheng Nan, it seems that it is indeed a country as a region, but the cost is also a huge amount of money, and it hurts to think about it when you use so many servers to build a server group.

It doesn't matter how many players are registered, as long as the number of people online at the same time is not beyond the capacity of the server, just like everyone is on the Internet, but not all of them are logging into the same website, if everyone on the Internet is logged in to the same website at the same time. No matter how advanced the servers of this website are, they will crash instantly.

Many hackers also like to use this trick to access a domain name at the same time with countless broilers, so that it can't withstand the access of so many people and crashes directly.

This kind of traffic attack is the simplest and most effective way, and only if there are enough broilers, it is not impossible to sweep the world.

The same goes for game servers, if a peer wants to play a trick on himself, he can register tens of thousands of accounts and enter a server at the same time to crash.
