Low latency levels attract popular online game companies to move into Peer 1's New York data center.
Peer 1 Network Enterprises Inc., a server colocation, IP network and customer support solutions provider, announced recently that LeetServers.com, TheUltimateGameServer.com & FatpipeServers.net have all moved their game-servers into Peer 1's New York data center last month.
These online gaming companies found Peer 1's performance better for delivering a real-time gaming experience over the net. Peer 1's goal to provide the lowest ping networks possible, is attracting such firms.
A 'ping' is one way to measure the speed of a network. Low ping times mean that the network is fast. For gamers who are trying to out-maneuver other players in real-time online, this is critical. A slow network can cost a player the game.
"Peer 1 delivers the ultimate in high-speed, low latency network performance which is essential for giving our customers a gaming experience with no interruptions. Our network was built with applications such as gaming in mind," concurred Peer 1's Chief Technology Officer, Mark Teolis. "We know that for some, even a little bit of latency or downtime can be costly so we've designed the network to mitigate against that."
