About

No matter where game developers work, they need to remain creative, stay connected, and collaborate seamlessly on projects. At the same time, game studios need to scale development, supercharge development velocity and iteration and onboard teams fast. In a world where games are getting larger and more complex, migrating development pipelines, infrastructure, and networking to the cloud can net a massive 27% decrease in onboarding time, and 29% faster time to market.

Join leading game studio Riot Games as they share firsthand experiences, best practices, and tradeoffs of migrating game development pipelines to the cloud. From version control and build automation to virtual workstations, discover how cloud infrastructure accelerates development cycles, enhances collaboration, and strengthens security – without compromising creativity. You'll walk away with a game plan for cloud development, and a clear path to either move, build, or buy the cloud solutions that best fit your development needs.
