Case Study
Founded in 2019, MARCO Gaming is a company focused on audio-visual and new media technology. As a professional video streaming service provider, MARCO Gaming has always placed system stability and video quality at the top of its priorities for clients.
MARCO Gaming client base is concentrated in Mainland China, but to expand its footprint further, the company has planned to extend its business into Southeast Asia. To support this goal, MARCO Gaming chose Netron Information Technology as its operations partner. Netron Information Technology provided advanced solutions including fully managed AWS services and dedicated databases, capable of processing and storing large volumes of data in real time, while protecting services and infrastructure from external threats through robust security measures.
Pain point:
- As a video streaming service provider, MARCO Gaming experiences clear peak periods and seasonal surges, making it difficult and costly to adjust hardware and staffing resources accordingly.
- Client-side latency issues were difficult to resolve, affecting the end-user viewing experience.
- Limited IDC bandwidth made network stability difficult to maintain during peak periods, while users needed consistently smooth playback rather than buffering delays.
The Solution:
- Using an AWS EC2 Auto Scaling Group, capacity scales automatically based on demand, adding instances during peak periods to maintain performance and reducing capacity during quieter periods to lower costs.
- A serverless deployment approach supports large-scale operations, automatically scaling from zero to peak demand to respond to client needs more quickly.
- AWS CloudFront delivers streaming content securely with low latency and high transfer speeds, reducing delays for end users.
Results:
- Resource usage is automatically optimized, eliminating the need to pay for excess provisioning and lowering overall costs.
- Video preload time was reduced by more than 50%, allowing the latest content to reach users quickly and delivering the best possible viewing experience.
