hello all ,
we are currently making a MMo game using Unity 5 and bolt engine can you guys suggest which will be a better
solution for making a MMO server ?
feel free to contact me to know more about our project and also to help us out

This is too vague for anyone to give a decent answer, I think. What kind of game? Real-time synchronized between X number of players? A card game? asynchronus strategy?
Not really sure about new Unity 5 networking and have completely no experience with bolt engine. However, from what I can say, networking Unity used to have should be enough. Thing is, if you are doing MMO game, you need to have good grasp of how and when you need to synchronise information and you didn't share any details of your project, but it is absolutely possible to do a decent synchronisation model using tools Unity currently provides. Not sure about way other tools handle it, but you will probably need some abilities regarding databases (SQL) and some scripting language (PHP? Python?) to provide access to data from SQL through WWW class.
There have a solution for making a MMo game using Unity,its free and opensource.
It have a stablish network(include client's network write by c# and server's network write by c++[libevent] ).
the website: https://github.com/ketoo/NoahGameFrame
features:
1: it is easy to use interface oriented design minimise the effort;
2: extensible plugin framework makes getting your application running is quick and simple;
3: clean, uncluttered design, stable engine used in several commercial products;
4: using the actor model has very high performance(by theron);
5: based on the event-driven and attribute-driver can make business more clearly and easy to maintenance;
6: based on the standard c + + development, cross-platform support;
7: with existing c++, c# game client for rapid development;
if u r interest to use this frame, pelased contact the author without hesitation.
and the network in this website: https://github.com/NFGameTeam/NFNET
i have used it in my online game and it easy to learn.
//1:init
NFINet* m_pNet = new NFCNet(nHeadLength, this, &NFINetModule::OnRecivePack, &NFINetModule::OnSocketEvent);
m_pNet->Initialization(strIP, nPort);//as server
//m_pNet->Initialization(nMaxClient, nPort, nCpuCount);//as client
//2:call it in every frame
m_pNet->Execute(fLastFrametime, fStartedTime);there have a demo what how to use the network
https://github.com/ketoo/NoahGameFrame/tree/develop/NFServer/NFLoginNet_ServerPlugin //as server
https://github.com/ketoo/NoahGameFrame/tree/develop/_Out/Server/ClientBin/source //as client
if u have and question please contact the author.
