Abstract
A method for implementing a modification microservice with a game cloud system is described. The method includes executing a game instance of a game. The game instance is executed using a plurality of microservices assembled for the game instance. The method further includes accessing a modification microservice engineered to be executed with the game instance. The modification microservice adds a compute capability to the game instance. The modification microservice is executed outside of a server system in which the plurality of microservices is assembled for the game instance. Also, the modification microservice is accessed by one or more application programming interface (API) calls that obtain results data from said execution of the modification microservice. The one or more API calls are managed via a modification interface that manages the access to the modification microservice and use of the results data by the game instance.
