Andrey Nikishin, Senior Cloud Product Manager at DiffusionData, said: “Anybody that signs up will gain access to a mature, fully managed service, free of charge for a month. Diffusion Cloud removes many of the obstacles developers face when using open source or in-house built solutions, most notably in terms of scalability and latency. Diffusion Cloud offers a predictability which is reassuring for companies that are streaming high volumes of real time business critical data.”
Scalability and Reducing CapEx and OpEx Costs
Operational costs are always a focus for companies. To reduce costs there is a need for a framework which can reduce operational complexity and cost, manage increased scale of real-time data delivery to meet market demands, and assure data access control and security. The key to success is deploying a framework, like Diffusion Cloud, that can easily and reliably scale up and down as required and also deliver data with optimal efficiency using data deltas and compression algorithms to reduce bandwidth usage.
Diffusion Cloud securely consumes data from any source then provides a flexible model to organize and hyper-personalise granular data. Its real-time event broker with intelligent queuing and patented delta-streaming protocol can save businesses 90% in bandwidth costs.
Connecting, Transforming and Delivering Real-time Data
Technology providers are looking to introduce solutions which reduce bandwidth and infrastructure requirements for customers to enable lower day-to-day operational costs, less system stress during peak events, and reduced support costs. However, many providers still use systems built on open source technology, which was good to get the framework up and running, but is now restrictive in terms of scalability and functionality. The reality is that legacy technologies are not smart and send too much data to too many people unnecessarily, which is inefficient and expensive. Peak events will frequently cause massive loads on infrastructure and increase bandwidth needs.
Streaming technologies need to be aware of data usage to minimise bandwidth requirements. In order to manage and transmit deltas or changes to data, the framework must have the capability to know what has been sent, when it was sent, and to whom it was sent. These features allow companies to enhance their applications and expand revenue opportunities.
Diffusion Cloud addresses the demanding needs of vendors where handling scale, performance, regulatory requirements, disparate geographies, and infrastructure efficiency, are vital to business success.
Personalisation
One of the key differentiators for many companies is to offer a personalised experience. There is a business need to anticipate customer desire based on their actions. Responding to customers in a personalised manner can move the goal posts away from churn and towards customer retention and increased engagement. When a customer engages with a site it is critical that they can easily choose options which address their specific requirements. To do this you need to be able to connect to a variety of data sources. In the past, this meant engaging in a drawn out, expensive data integration project. Today, companies can use a data framework to save time.
This is when solutions like Diffusion Cloud become a necessity. It is purpose-built to oversee the unique, real-time data ingestion, processing, and delivery challenges among data sources, applications, users, and devices for companies.
In summary, Diffusion Cloud will:
- Seed development and shorten go-to-market time for new offerings
- Control and secure event-data flowing to and from millions of online customers
- Reduce development and ongoing operational costs; simplify deployment
- Assure regulatory compliance for geographic expansion; and
- Deliver personalised and enriched individual experiences.

SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator: Largest Content Hub Certified in Brazil
The SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, the largest content hub in the iGaming industry, has secured Brazilian certification, becoming one of the first in the market to achieve this milestone.
Regulatory rules for iGaming come into effect in Brazil on 1 January 2025. According to them, platforms, aggregators, sportsbooks, and providers must undergo certification. Companies aiming to provide their services in Brazil in 2025 and beyond have been preparing for this transition throughout the year.
The SOFTSWISS team announces that its Game Aggregator is the first to fully comply with regulations, completing all necessary preparations and receiving the certificate to ensure smooth and efficient operations for its clients.
SOFTSWISS has also obtained certification for integration with the world’s largest game providers – Pragmatic Play, Evolution, and Playtech. These providers offer a diverse range of games tailored to suit the preferences of Brazilian players, from immersive live dealer experiences to engaging slots and table games, ensuring entertainment for every type of player.
According to recent Kantar research conducted in November 2024, the overall satisfaction index for the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator is 8.1 out of 10. Remarkably, half of the respondents rated the product a 10 or 9. Customer support service satisfaction scored even higher, at 8.4 out of 10.
The Game Aggregator also boasts a key advantage: consistent 99.999% uptime, which is crucial for the iGaming business.
Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, notes: “According to our information, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator is the first aggregator fully prepared, both technically and legally, to work in Brazil when the new regulations take effect. This is a significant achievement that the team has worked on diligently and systematically. Our work doesn’t stop here – we are actively adding new providers to help our clients expand their presence in this promising Brazilian market, which is no longer ‘the sleeping giant’. It has awakened, and SOFTSWISS is at the forefront of this exciting transformation.”
To support this high level of performance, earlier this year SOFTSWISS appointed Rubens Barrichello, the Brazilian Formula 1 legend, as a Non-Executive Director, demonstrating its strong commitment to the local market. To ensure efficient operations and promptly address ongoing matters, SOFTSWISS also has a dedicated team of local business development managers in Brazil.
SOFTSWISS team will be available to discuss partnership in Brazil and other markets at the first major iGaming event of 2025 – ICE Barcelona, taking place on 20–22 January, at stand 2G42.
