Online Gaming

Online gaming is an exacting business. Not only is the market crowded with many sites delivering similar offerings, but the customer is always looking for a more exciting gaming experience. Throw in unpredictable, event-driven demand and suddenly the house odds don’t look so good!

Thankfully, technology gives pro-active online gaming providers the tools to attract customers, and outsmart the competition. Grid technology originally developed to improve the performance of risk and pricing applications, offers gaming organizations a way to reliably process more calculations, faster, and more accurately, using fewer IT resources.

Cloud technology adds the benefit of accommodating peak user demand without adding more hardware. If a major sporting event increases traffic by a factor of 10, you needn’t worry about having enough dedicated servers to handle the added business – just leverage other servers within the organization, or access external resources in a controlled, policy-based fashion.

The Platform Computing Advantage:

Our technology allows you to build an IT framework that transforms low cost, off-the-shelf, easy-to-maintain commodity servers, into a shared resource as fast and powerful as a “mini-supercomputer” so you can:

  • Compete on the ability to deliver enhanced customer satisfaction with systems that are more sophisticated and scalable than those deployed by rivals
  • Run more sophisticated modeling applications with more inputs and provide more accurate and timely fixed and spread prices
  • Save costs by breaking down internal IT silos and employing existing, underutilized IT assets when and where they are needed
  • Ensure regulatory compliance by providing automation around complex tasks that can result in reporting errors
