In today’s wave of the digital economy, blockchain technology is rapidly changing our world. In this fast-changing new era, cloud services remain an important infrastructure in the technological revolution. CloudMile, as Taiwan’s first managed service provider (MSP) with Google Cloud certification, is actively embracing this revolution to provide cutting-edge technology and services for Web3 startups, promoting innovative application development.
CloudMile’s Web3 heavyweight partners talk about their cloud service experience
At the 2023 Taipei Blockchain Week (TBW), Sangbi Qushi interviewed two heavyweight Web3 customers of CloudMile, Ray, co-founder of the gaming project Matr1x, and Li Xuan, co-founder of the wallet service provider portto. They shared with us how they utilized CloudMile’s services to achieve business expansion and innovation.
Portto is the developer of the popular cryptocurrency wallet Blocto, which has a unique feature called “Account Abstraction (AA)” that allows users to bypass the complex process of “saving private keys or mnemonic phrases.” This significantly reduces the entry barrier for users to enter the Web3 field and makes it easier for beginners to enter the world of blockchain.
Matr1x, on the other hand, is a highly popular blockchain gaming project that aims to become a Web3 entertainment platform integrating elements such as games, esports, IP, and NFTs. Recently, it announced a full investment round (A2+) under OKX Ventures. Matr1x’s flagship product is the shooting mobile game MATR1X FIRE, and its platform and NFT MATR1X KUKU are currently being released.
Google Cloud – the powerful cloud foundation chosen by portto and Matr1x
When it comes to the cloud architecture of their products, Li Xuan, co-founder of portto, stated that to enhance user experience and reduce the risk of users losing their private keys, Blocto defaults to a “private key custodian” mechanism. This encrypts users’ private keys and stores them on the cloud platform. As the world’s top public cloud provider, Google Cloud offers comprehensive developer tools, high-quality stability, key management services (KMS) that meet the requirements, and support for various digital signature algorithms, making it the preferred choice for Blocto.
Ray, co-founder of Matr1x, mentioned that the most important factor when choosing a cloud service for their team was network latency. For a shooting game, any delay longer than 100 milliseconds would affect the user experience. Google Cloud can provide an exceptional gaming experience in multiple countries and regions worldwide.
CloudMile collaborates with Google Cloud to provide customized cloud solutions
If Google Cloud has so many advantages, why do portto and Matr1x need to build their cloud environments through CloudMile?
In fact, Google Cloud is like a large building materials market that provides various cloud computing resources and services, such as server space, database services, and machine learning tools. However, not all customers have the expertise or resources to build and maintain their own “cloud architecture” (i.e., cloud infrastructure).
In this case, CloudMile acts as a construction contractor. They not only understand all the materials and tools available in the market but are also skilled in designing and building complete structures. Customers can collaborate with CloudMile, who will utilize Google Cloud’s materials and tools to tailor, build, and maintain their cloud transformation projects.
In simple terms, Google Cloud provides the foundation and platform for cloud infrastructure, while CloudMile offers customized design, implementation, and management services on top of these services. When talking about the benefits brought by CloudMile’s services, Li Xuan, co-founder of portto, mentioned that CloudMile provides considerable technical support and suggestions in terms of “cloud system stability” and “cloud architecture upgrade and expansion.”
Furthermore, CloudMile is actively expanding the Web3 ecosystem. As a member of the ecosystem, Blocto has also gained many Web3 customers and partners through this network of mutual support. This adds value to the services provided by CloudMile.
Ray from Matr1x also mentioned that CloudMile and Google Cloud provided excellent product and technical support when they had limited budget in their early stages. This support extends beyond the technical aspect, as CloudMile even facilitated collaborations with Matr1x in brand promotion and offline events, leaving a deep impression on him.
CloudMile accelerates the development of the Web3 industry through cloud technology services
In the wave of the digital economy, especially in the rapid development of blockchain and Web3, CloudMile, as a Google Cloud-certified managed service provider, plays a key role in technological innovation and services.
Through close collaboration with Google Cloud, CloudMile not only provides basic cloud computing services but also offers customized solutions to help customers like portto and Matr1x achieve business transformation and innovation. CloudMile’s services go beyond technical support and cover brand promotion, event sponsorship, and strengthening customer connections and collaborations in the Web3 ecosystem. These added values not only significantly enhance customers’ technical capabilities but also deepen their impression and trust in CloudMile’s services.
