The project requires high CPU and network IO performance, so Photon needs the best available hosting power.
They needed an infrastructure that is able to process a huge number of requests and also repel DDoS attacks to preserve the reputation of studios in the eyes of players.
After analyzing the market options, the engineers at Photon selected Gcore as one of the main providers of server capacity and DDoS protection.
