The Critical Importance of On-Premise Software Installation in the Gaming Industry: Navigating Risks of Cloud Service Withdrawals
The gaming industry is at a pivotal crossroads where data security and operational reliability are more critical than ever. As casinos increasingly leverage advanced software to enhance operations and guest experiences, the decision between cloud-based and on-premise solutions becomes paramount. Quick Custom Intelligence (QCI) advocates strongly for on-premise installations, not just for enhanced data protection but also to navigate the growing trend of cloud service providers and major businesses withdrawing support from gaming companies.
Many cloud providers and businesses, including major banks, have recently made decisions not to support gaming companies. This unsettling trend means that after substantial investments in cloud systems, the operators risk having these essential services abruptly withdrawn. Andrew Cardno, CTO of QCI, shares a personal experience: “One of our banks informed us they would not extend our business because we work with casinos. Fortunately, we had other banking options, but this highlights a significant risk for the industry.”
The inconsistency of support from cloud vendors poses a critical question: Is that the kind of vendor relationship gaming companies want? “I’ve sometimes heard of cloud vendors saying they will make an exception,” Cardno continues. “But will you get the best service? Will you have a dedicated team that understands your business, or will you constantly be educating people on why the gaming industry is different? More importantly, does this action help the industry?”
By choosing on-premise solutions, casinos retain full control over their data and operations, eliminating the risk of sudden service withdrawals. This control is vital in an industry where data breaches or service interruptions can lead to significant financial and reputational damage.
A representative from a leading casino, who wishes to remain anonymous, echoed this sentiment: “When evaluating the risks, it was clear that keeping our data on-premise offered the best protection and stability. We avoid the uncertainties associated with cloud providers who may not fully support our industry.”
QCIâs commitment to protecting the casino industryâs data ensures that its on-premise solutions provide unmatched security, reliability, and control. For any casino looking to prioritize security and minimize exposure to cloud-based risksâincluding the risk of service withdrawalâon-premise installation is the clear choice.
