We're thrilled to announce that Databricks will be sponsoring Game Developers Conference (GDC), the world's largest professional game industry event, taking place March 20th-24th in San Francisco.

At Databricks, we specialize in helping game studios build better games with stronger, more engaged communities by empowering teams with a unified platform that seamlessly brings together data, analytics, and AI. This is why the biggest names in gaming build on Databricks to better understand their players, drive meaningful engagement, and create new paths to monetization.

Some of the biggest challenges facing game studios today is around their data. Teams struggle with fragmented views of their audience, with data often outpacing legacy technologies. Today, the need for real-time capabilities and the leap from descriptive to predictive analytics has made it so that data, analytics, and AI are no longer a "nice-to-have", but table stakes for success. With Databricks, our unified data platform breaks down these data silos and empowers teams to process, analyze, and visualize the vast amounts of game data in real time, enabling them to make informed decisions faster and iterate on games more effectively.

This is our first year participating at GDC, and we want to help you kick the week off in style! Join us Tuesday, March 21st at 6pm alongside our gaming expert friends from AWS and Slalom for an evening of networking, food and drinks. Just steps away from Moscone Center, this invitation-only evening reception will bring together leaders in the industry, data experts and some of our top ecosystem partners.

We'll also have a presence on the expo show floor, Booth S238 in South Hall, where you can talk directly to data and AI experts, walk through demos demonstrating game analytics and advanced data use cases, and learn how Databricks can help you harness the power of game data to differentiate and drive success for your title like never before. Whether you're an independent developer or a global AAA studio, we encourage you to discover how the Databricks Lakehouse can help you take data from any source, for any workload — and create more engaging gamer experiences driven by real-time data. All of this at the lowest cost, with the greatest investment protection.

We would love to meet with you to discuss how we can help you achieve your goals. To learn more about Databricks and our presence at GDC 2022, visit our GDC event page or reach out to us on social media.

We can't wait to see you there!
