Vyking helps iGaming customers quickly gain insights using Oracle HeatWave MySQL
The iGaming platform provider simplifies infrastructure management and helps its customers rapidly analyze large data sets with HeatWave MySQL on OCI.
“Running HeatWave MySQL on OCI allows us to deliver the performance and autonomy that today’s iGaming brands need—while laying the foundation for real-time analytics, smarter personalization, and global growth.”
Vyking provides an iGaming platform with capabilities including content management and payment processing. Managing infrastructure, either on-premises or co-located, had become too complex and time-consuming for the fast-growing company. Vyking also struggled with MySQL performance limitations, making it difficult for its customers to quickly gain insights from large data volumes. After evaluating MySQL on Google Cloud as well as Microsoft SQL Server and PostgreSQL on-premises, the company selected Oracle HeatWave MySQL on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to run analytical queries directly within MySQL. Company leaders were impressed with its performance, which completed queries on over 800 million records in 1.4 seconds—compared to timing out at 5 minutes previously—providing its customers with limitless analysis opportunities. They were equally impressed by the quality of Oracle’s MySQL technical support. Migrating to OCI also helped Vyking significantly simplify infrastructure management and deliver greater business continuity.
