Summary/Abstract: In this paper we demonstrate how to integrate 3rd party services in serious games. We use message queue broker and micro-services in a publish/subscribe manner in order to use real-time 3rd party data into a serious game’s logic. First, we discuss the benefits of service oriented architecture. Then, weanalyse and compare different message queues brokers in terms of data latency, throughput, fail-tolerance and scalability for the purpose of serious games. As asequence, we apply those best practices from other domains in the field of Serious Games (SGs). Finally, we summarize the presented ideas and comparisonsand draw conclusions.
