Edge Acceleration for Gaming and Interactive Workloads

Pain points

Typical gaming pain points

Large patch packages and concentrated concurrent downloads overwhelm origin bandwidth on launch and update peaks.
Campaign pages and server-open moments drive sudden spikes that crush origin and databases.
Matches and interactive long-connections are sensitive to latency and jitter, uneven across networks and regions.
Gaming is a frequent target of DDoS, protocol abuse and cheat-bot probing.

IXCDN

How IXCDN solves it

Patches and campaign assets are cached at the edge for nearby delivery; dynamic APIs and long-connections ride smart routing with connection reuse; all traffic is scrubbed by DDoS/WAF at the edge before reaching origin.

Large file delivery

Installers, patches and assets via edge prefetch + chunked caching + resumable transfer — stable terabyte-scale delivery with up to 90% less origin load.

Spike absorption

Campaign pages, server-open and check-in APIs absorb bursts behind edge cache and rate limiting — origin stays up.

Low-latency interactivity

Anycast + GeoDNS nearby ingress + connection reuse cut latency and jitter for matches and WebSocket sessions.

Security up front

L3/L4 + L7 DDoS, WAF, bot management and rate limiting run before requests reach origin.

Observability

Real-time monitoring and access logs by domain, region and status code to locate lag and anomalies fast.

Benefits

Outcomes

Instant feel

Patches and campaign pages load in seconds — better retention and monetization.

Stable under spikes

Server-open and event peaks stay online without firefighting.

Lower cost

Up to 91% edge cache hit ratio significantly cuts origin bandwidth and server cost.
