About Yunpai
Beijing Yunpai Network Technology Co., Ltd. is a mobile internet technology company that focuses on the research and development (R&D) of mobile cloud products and services. Its core product, Yunpai Mobile Game Manager, is a highly acclaimed Android application developed to tailor to the needs of mobile gaming users. This application provides users with a wide variety of functions, such as click-to-play without downloading, intelligent cloud assistance, cross-platform compatibility, and the elimination of hardware limitation for games. With the motto "Let the game be easier," Yunpai Networks strives to enable players achieve the perfect "gaming and life balance" through its innovative products.
Challenge
The on-premises data center (IDC) of Yunpai Networks consists of tens of thousands of cloud mobile phones, all of which are mobile phone card servers. With the rapid growth of the business, Yunpai Networks is facing increasingly complex challenges in the operation and maintenance (O&M) of these mobile phone card servers.
Furthermore, the existing IDC is not capable of meeting high-elasticity resource requirements during gaming events and activities due to the long supply cycle of hardware resources and high idle costs. To make matters worse, many games themselves often have strict hardware requirements, making it challenging to meet the needs of high-end mobile games in a timely manner.
