-## Existing state of affairs
+\vspace{1em}
+
+Numerous additional tasks were also assigned me throughout the internship;
+especially to know my opinion about the implementation of some features that
+can influence the deployment, load or security.

+
+Thanks to my recent experience in assistants laboratory and SRS laboratory as
+system administrator and many personal experiences, I started comfortable with
+virtualization technologies, basis of the cloud computing.

+Because of the company youth, there wasn't any work related to my internship
+subject; others employees work on different problematics.
+
+## Work
+
+My internship can be split into two parts, but a timeline is not relevant
+because I regularly handle multiple tasks in parallel depending on the needs of
+the rest of the team.
+
+\vspace{1em}
+
+* **State of art:**
+    * Cloud computing platforms analysis
+    * Automatic deployment tools analysis
+    * Virtualization technologies analysis
+    * Ingame chat solution research
+    * Authentication solution research
+
+* **Developments:**
+    * Design and implementation of a system metrics' gathering software
+    * Writing some deployment recipes for servers
+    * Creating a delivery process for virtual machines
+    * Load testing the current server implementation
+    * Implementation of game and business metrics' gathering into the game server
+    * Looking for the best architecture for future servers deployment
 
 ## General appreciation
 
+I worked both for the team (virtual machines, ...) and on long-term issues
+(server, cloud scalability, ...). For each part, my work was received with
+interest by those involved.
+
+\vspace{1em}
+
+This is an advantage of small business: we can communicate easily to design the
+most appropriate solutions to requestor's demands. The project is still recent,
+every week, we plan a meeting together to see the progress of each game
+part. It's very motivating to see the project grow quickly.

 ## Engineering skills acquired
 
+Thanks to this internship, I acquired a lot of new skills like:
+
+* operating system-level virtualization;
+* automatic deployment;
+* MMO game server;
+* cloud computing scalability;
+* free software distribution and participation in company context;
+* metrics gathering;
+* Go programming language.
+
 ## Conclusion
+
+After my internship, Novaquark now has solid foundations for all aspects around
+the game server: virtual machines for client developers, server deployment and
+security through system containers and metrics gathering for future use in
+scalability.
+
+\vspace{1em}
+
+On the other hand, I also clarified several issues remain obscure, such as
+authentication, chat system or the architecture for deployment and update. This
+will be set up when developers will have developed these points.
+
+\vspace{1em}
+
+I worked with many applications, libraries and open source technologies, and am
+delighted to have been able to contribute in the name of the company. Finally,
+the diversity of the work done during this internship was particularly
+rewarding.
