Online gaming platforms rely on real-time event streaming to monitor and analyze player behavior, enhance engagement, and detect anomalies. Common use cases include:

• Tracking gameplay events, purchases, achievements, and social interactions in real time.
• Using Snowplow to capture these events and stream them to platforms like Kafka or Kinesis.
• Analyzing events to power features like in-game personalization, dynamic difficulty scaling, or fraud detection.

The ability to react instantly—such as by issuing rewards or alerts—improves player experience and operational responsiveness.
