GPORTAL Improves Performance And Reduces Costs
GPORTAL was able to increase the number of Minecraft game instances on a single server by 2.78x without negatively impacting gameplay performance using a combination of 2nd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors and Intel® Optane™ persistent memory.3 Based on this result, the company plans to migrate all its Minecraft servers to the new configuration over time. New technology from Intel, consisting of a combination of 2nd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors and Intel® Optane™ persistent memory, along with highly reliable PowerEdge servers from Dell EMC, enables GPORTAL to meet customer expectations and increase data center efficiency without increasing costs.

Wanted: Affordable, Reliable Performance

Most of the popular online games available on the market today are hyper-optimized for single-threaded execution. Usually running at 60 frames per second (FPS), these games also require high core frequencies to ensure the low latency gamers expect. If latency climbs, gamers experience video jitter, delayed command response and time-outs-all of which wreak havoc on the gaming experience.

Gaming servers must be able to manage multiple users in parallel, handle numerous games on one system, and interconnect users. With up to a million gamers on their systems, each performing several transactions every minute, it’s clear that GPORTAL needs server infrastructure that has plenty of memory, high-end compute capability and high-9s availability. On the other hand, in the online gaming world, server rental pricing is a major factor when gamers choose one hosting company over another. To accommodate an ever-growing customer base and more complex games, GPORTAL needed to modernize its infrastructure-but what was the right combination of technologies?

Combine Unique Memory Technology with High-Performance Processors

Intel has reimagined the memory storage hierarchy with Intel® Optane™ persistent memory. This technology is a nonvolatile memory option that delivers a combination of large memory capacity and support for data persistence for easy data accessibility. The workload-optimized technology sits between the memory and storage layers and helps enable businesses to handle data-intensive applications reliably and affordably. GPORTAL received a prototype of Intel® Optane™ persistent memory and was intrigued by the possibilities. Running in Memory Mode, Intel® Optane™ persistent memory provides terabytes of system memory-far more than can be provisioned using standard DRAM DIMMS. In App Direct Mode, Intel® Optane™ persistent memory provides non-volatile memory that retains data through system reboots.

GPORTAL explored both modes-as well as Dual Mode, which provides expanded memory as well as non-volatile storage-and was pleased with the results. Which mode GPORTAL uses depends on the specific game. For example, GPORTAL’s Minecraft servers are now provisioned with eight x 128 gigabyte (GB) Intel® Optane™ persistent memory modules, running in Dual Mode.

Depending on the game, GPORTAL uses a variety of Dell EMC PowerEdge servers equipped with Intel® Xeon® Gold 6254 processors, Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8268 processors or an Intel® Xeon® E-2288G processor (which is a single-socket CPU with up to 4.4 GHz frequency on a single thread). Cause We All Love Games has observed outstanding performance from the Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8268 processor combined with Intel® Optane™ persistent memory, and plans to migrate all the company’s existing Minecraft users to that configuration over time.
