&lt;p&gt;AEGIS is Windows Server software used along with&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;a class="" href="../Microsoft%20SQL%20Server"&gt;wikipedia:Microsoft_SQL_Server&lt;/a&gt; by Gravity Corporation&lt;br/&gt;
to run the official Ragnarok Online game servers.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was originally developed for exclusive use within Gravity and Gravity&lt;br/&gt;
subsidiaries, but has been leaked within its lifetime, purportedly by several&lt;br/&gt;
teams who compromised official computers which contained AEGIS binaries.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;AEGIS consists of a number of components:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Inter Server&lt;/strong&gt; Responsible for Guild Siege, Guild Chat, Private Message and synchronization between servers &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Zone Server&lt;/strong&gt; Responsible for Game Play Dynamics &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Character Server&lt;/strong&gt; Responsible for Character Information &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Account Server&lt;/strong&gt; Responsible for verifying information in the account database, such as if it exists, if it is either paid for or not (active/inactive), etc  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2 id="short-history"&gt;Short History&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;AEGIS was originally created by Hakkyu Kim (Neolith) and was his first server&lt;br/&gt;
project. Despite the fact that Aegis is referred to as production quality (due&lt;br/&gt;
to the involvement of commercial organizations) leaked versions revealed that&lt;br/&gt;
the majority of its configuration files were very simple, it used very&lt;br/&gt;
inefficient means of storing information for reference, and showed very high&lt;br/&gt;
memory usage when there were no routines running to suggest such usage.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The original development team was forced to leave the company after a takeover&lt;br/&gt;
by &lt;span&gt;[[wikipedia:Samsung_Electronics|Samsung Electronics]&lt;/span&gt; and most of the core&lt;br/&gt;
members are now working on a project known as&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span&gt;[[wikipedia:Granado_Espada|Granado Espada]&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="external-links"&gt;External Links&lt;/h2&gt;
