I am talking about bigger scala here of course. But not necessarily what you describe.

Take games like League of Legends or Counterstrike as examples. Having one game per actor seems like a sensible design to me.

But yeah, I think that traditional techniques still get you very far. I heard that Slack was running just on (multiple) postgres for the longest time.
