Transform cloud gaming with unparalleled connectivity
In our increasingly virtual lives, cloud gaming has gone truly global. To power seamless play across continents, 1-2-1, and at huge events organisations, you need a network capable of driving both high performance and low latency. The Colt IQ Network connects over 900 data centres across the world’s biggest gaming hubs, providing the unparalleled connectivity needed to support your next gaming innovation.
Will your network ruin your end-users cloud gaming experience?
There are few things the gaming community dislikes more than lag. This issue has negatively impacted the experience since the dawn of online gaming, and the improvement to game mechanics, graphics, and the increasing number of online players have only added to the frustrations caused by a highly latent network.
If this is a problem for online games, where much of the processing is done at the users end device, what's going to happen when processing is performed in the cloud?

Cloud gaming: the network's perspective
While much of the streaming from the connectivity layer to the device layer is managed by B2C service providers over the public internet, a dedicated/private connection from the content to the connectivity layer offers huge benefits to the end-user. This connection could be fully managed and offers a stable, flexible connection, with scalable bandwidths from the game publishers to your servers.
Bringing the cloud closer to you
Bringing the cloud closer to you and your end-customers is an infrastructure challenge, which comes with no small amount of investment. That being said, over the last couple of years Colt has densified our fibre network in Europe, Asia Pacific and North America extending to over 212 cities globally, which means that your end-user is never too far away from your servers. By connecting to over 200 cloud on-ramps, Colt is well placed to lower latency for your end-user, and our Cloud Services offer a flexible and scalable solution that can grow along with your business.
