TELEHOUSE America Offers Gaming Providers Total Solutions for Managing Online Gaming
TELEHOUSE America recently announced its new suite of solutions specifically packaged for both online and console-based gaming companies and operators.
The global online gaming industry is set to grow by 11% year-after-year throughout 2013, according to the Global Online Gaming Report 2009 published by Aarkstore Enterprise Market Research. “In the US, the amount of online play is growing 10 times as fast as the overall US Internet population, with nearly one of every two users getting in the game.” This growth is driving gaming companies to reassess their technical requirements and seek access to Internet backbone providers, traditionally housed in carrier-grade data center and colocation facilities.
TELEHOUSE houses the mission-critical equipment and IT operations of many of the world’s top Tier 1 and Tier 2 global Internet backbone providers. In addition, these facilities offer access to some of the most heavily trafficked IP peering exchanges operational today, including the New York International Internet Exchange (NYIIX) and the Los Angeles International Internet Exchange (LAIIX).
Through TELEHOUSE’s Global Interlink service, the company offers connectivity between all of its 37 global data center facilities and access to other data center or colocation facility providers. These services enable gaming, social media, along with the full scope of web oriented media companies, the resources required to implement their ubiquitous growth needs while achieving true diversity for their mission-critical IT environments. TELEHOUSE facilities ensure a high-level of business continuity and disaster prevention. In addition, TELEHOUSE’s suite of managed IT services, Manage-E, offers gaming companies a complete layer of 24/7 infrastructure management and IT systems support, both remotely and onsite at its data centers.
