Mediatonic, a UK-based video game studio, successfully managed the launch of their popular game Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout by utilizing advanced log management and data visualization techniques. To handle the large-scale multiplayer gaming environment, the technical operations team needed deep insights into the game’s mechanics, which they achieved by collaborating with Logz.io, a platform integrating Elasticsearch, Kibana, Prometheus, and Jaeger. This partnership enabled Mediatonic to centralize data, predict costs, and efficiently monitor server performance and user activity. By leveraging Logz.io's capabilities, they could visualize and manage gaming logs at scale, allowing rapid identification of server issues and optimization of gameplay experiences. This approach not only streamlined their operations but also provided unexpected insights and efficiencies, underscoring the platform’s utility in observability and monitoring for gaming and broader DevOps applications.
