Server Survival: A Cloud Architecture Tower Defense Game

Server Survival: Building Cloud Architecture Through Tower Defense

This project, Server Survival, offers a unique and engaging approach to understanding cloud architecture. It's an open-source tower defense game designed to teach players the fundamental principles of building scalable, resilient, and performant cloud infrastructure. Forget dry documentation; here, you'll learn by doing.

Key Concepts Covered:

  • Infrastructure Building: Strategically deploy compute, storage, and networking resources.
  • Traffic Management: Handle simulated user traffic and learn to optimize flow.
  • Scaling: Understand and implement scaling strategies to survive demand spikes.
  • Resilience: Defend against failures and learn to build fault-tolerant systems.

Server Survival provides a practical, hands-on experience that bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world cloud engineering challenges. It's a testament to how gamification can enhance technical education.

Are you ready to architect your survival?
