GREE creates several real-time multiplayer games that require the ability to deliver large quantities of assets rapidly to ensure they are providing a fast, consistent user experience for their players to ensure customer satisfaction. As their games became more complex and asset sizes continued to grow, GREE noticed service issues and turned to Akamai for assistance. Akamai’s ability to distribute massive assets at the edge globally enabled GREE to deliver exceptional game experiences for their users.
