Technical Architecture

Origin uses a modular architecture to provide seamless gameplay experiences. The core technologies used are:

• Frontend Framework: React.js with Redux state management
• Backend Framework: Node.js with Express.js
• Database: MongoDB (document-based NoSQL database)
• API: RESTful API using JSON Web Tokens

The software architecture consists of the following components:

1. Game Client: A custom-built game client that connects to the Origin servers.
2. Server: A high-performance server that handles gameplay, matchmaking, and user authentication.
3. Database: A MongoDB database that stores game data, user profiles, and other relevant information.

Performance considerations include:

• Caching: Origin uses caching mechanisms to reduce latency and improve performance.
• Load Balancing: The Origin servers are load-balanced across multiple instances to ensure high availability.

Dependencies

Origin depends on the following libraries and frameworks:

• React.js: 17.0.2
• Redux: 7.1.3
• Node.js: 14.17.0
• Express.js: 4.17.1
• MongoDB: 4.4.1

Prerequisite software that must be installed includes:

• Node.js

Compatibility concerns or version requirements include:

• Chrome/Firefox/Edge: Must have the latest stable version of each browser.
• React/Redux: Must be compatible with the specified versions.
