The Electronic Arts Digital Platform (EADP) is one of the world's largest and fastest growing gaming platforms with a mission to change how the world plays games. 

We live, breathe, and dream about how we can make every player’s multiplayer experience memorable. We develop SDKs and services in collaboration with EA’s game studios for matchmaking, stats and leaderboards, achievements, game replays, VOIP, and game networking. 

We try to capture the most memorable portions of your experience, such as statistics to compare yourself to other players, achievements you earned during play, and even replays of your own games to share. To do this we are always asking questions:

1. How do we balance matches to give you the most fun? 
2. How do we make the game more challenging among a group of friends? 
3. How can we predict and evaluate your connectivity to give you the best connection to other players?
