Project Darkstar was an open source MMOG middleware solution written in Java by the Project Darkstar team at Sun Microsystems. It was a research project headed by Sun Microsystems engineer Jim Waldo that was publicly released on August 30, 2007[1], and "aims to help developers and operators avoid a range of serious, yet typical, problems associated with massive scale online games, virtual worlds, and social networking applications today, including zone overloading, data corruption, and server underutilization."[2] February 2, 2010, Oracle shut down the project,[3][4] and a community fork has been made called RedDwarf Server.[5]
