Jazz Game Rules - Architecture
In designing the Jazz Wrestling Game Rules application for the Windows Phone, we wanted to store a single set of game rules that are accessible to Phones, Windows 8 PC's and general browsers. This slide shows the network architecture of how this was achieved.
The above image shows the cloud where the Game Rules database is stored.
Windows Phones access the Game Rules database via a web service at start-up and import the game rules into the phone's local database so that the phone can be used in standalone mode.
The WiebeWorks website also accesses the Game Rules database via the same web service and converts the requested rule that is displayed in a web page.
