Tiffany uses a very sophisticated database solution to both store
player data and also store web content data.
Player Data - There are many places
where player data must be stored including the login, player
profile, forum, messaging system and game recording. This is
done using the included networking abilities of Macromedia Director
making a call to the server. The server runs an ASP script and
manipulates the database though ADO.
Web Content
Data
- The entire supporting web site (www.gettiffany.com) is generated dynamically
from a database. This was done to make the updating process as
simple and quick as possible. The site has a custom built web-based
administration utility to add, delete and modify pages and global
page settings. For when new graphics need to be added to the
site, a custom web-based FTP utility was added so that graphic
uploads can be done from anywhere and without having to use a
third-party FTP application.
