Challenge


For some time, Lyto has had a first-mover advantage over its competitors in the online gaming industry. However, as Lyto has grown into a large gaming company with games played in several different markets across the world, Lyto's original IT infrastructure has started to be a bottleneck to its continued expansion and growth. Therefore, Lyto requires a reliable and highly scalable cloud-based infrastructure to stay competitive in the gaming industry. Such an infrastructure could help deal with the challenges of expanding and deploying services to even more countries and regions across the world.
