AsiaSoft's key business is in the publishing of Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPG), Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG) and Web Community Products. Its market leading titles, such as “Gunbound” and “MapleStory,” are estimated to reach over 80% of the online gaming audience in Singapore. Serving tens of thousands of online players at any given time, the reliable delivery of these services requires a high-performance and redundant IT infrastructure that ensures continuous operations. Thus, service uptime and reliability were crucial factors in AsiaSoft's selection of a data center provider.

Through the unique aggregation of network providers offering services in the center, AsiaSoft can streamline its connectivity to customers, drastically improving performance and reducing connectivity costs.

In addition, we have the confidence that we are operating in the most advanced environment in terms of power availability, temperature control and security, so that our customers will have the highest-quality experience."
