TL;DR
AWS Graviton processors deliver up to 40 % better price‑performance for compute‑heavy game servers and databases. We are one of the very few AWS Partners in the region with a Graviton Service Delivery designation and a proven track record of migrating gaming workloads—at scale and without downtime. Our customers collectively spend tens of millions of dollars on AWS every month, giving us unique insight into which Graviton instance families, regions, and commitment models unlock the greatest savings. Work with us and you’ll receive a free, use‑case‑specific cost & performance calculation plus hands‑on migration support that dovetails perfectly with your existing AWS Account and O&A teams.
Read on for the full story and learn how to start your Graviton journey today.
Why Graviton Matters for Gaming Companies
- Higher frame rates & lower latency. Graviton3‑based instances (C7g, R7g, etc.) deliver more compute per core—great for real‑time game servers, match‑making, and live data processing.
- Budget headroom for new features. Typical gaming customers report 25‑40 % lower EC2 spend after migration, freeing cash for innovation instead of infrastructure.
- Greener operations. Graviton’s energy efficiency translates into a smaller carbon footprint, supporting sustainability goals and publisher PR commitments.
Our Credentials (and Why They Matter to You)
| What sets us apart | What it means for your company |
|---|---|
| AWS Graviton Service Delivery Partner | Independent validation that our engineers follow AWS best practices for architecture, migration, and optimisation on Graviton. |
| Dozens of gaming migrations completed | We know the common game‑engine quirks, anti‑cheat constraints, and shard‑management pitfalls—and how to solve them quickly. |
| $XX million+ monthly AWS under management | Real‑time visibility into regional spot markets, Savings Plan utilisation, and RI resale trends—insight you can’t get from documentation alone. |
| Tight alignment with AWS Account & O&A teams | You keep the direct relationship with AWS; we augment it with code‑level support and financial engineering. |
The Benefits You’ll Actually Feel
- Up to 40 % lower compute cost without compromising performance.
- Reduced p95 latency (we often see 10‑15 % drops) thanks to Graviton’s higher per‑watt throughput.
- Faster CI/CD pipelines—buildx multi‑arch images compile once, run everywhere.
- Carbon reporting baked in. We expose per‑environment energy metrics in Grafana so you can track progress against ESG targets.
How We Deliver
- Free, data‑driven assessment. We ingest CloudWatch, X‑Ray, and billing exports to model cost, performance, and carbon impact.
- Pilot in days, not months. Start with a canary deployment on C7g or R7g; roll traffic when KPIs pass your SLO gates.
- Optimise commitments. We recommend the right blend of Savings Plans, Standard RIs, Convertible RIs, and Spot to protect flexibility and maximise discounts.
- Production rollout & beyond. Infrastructure‑as‑Code updates, automated rollback hooks, and continuous cost monitoring keep you future‑proof.
Where to Deploy for the Best Economics
Our analytics show that eu‑central‑1 and eu‑west‑1 currently offer the widest Graviton instance catalog and deepest Spot capacity for gaming workloads, while us‑east‑2 often leads on on‑demand cost. The right answer depends on your latency map and player distribution—our free calculation will pinpoint the sweet spot.
