Enterprises have used Amazon CloudFront in numerous and creative ways. One success story involves King, a company that develops games for mobile platforms.
Established in 2006, King soon found success in developing Facebook-centric mobile games. Aiming to let consumers play games at any time and any place, they have developed over 180 games and garnered 364 million players across 200 countries, with up to 1.6B game plays daily.
They have game studios running from Stockholm to Seattle, with offices in San Francisco, Malta, Seoul, Tokyo and Shanghai.
King works with CloudFront to distribute their products all over the world.
