Welcome to Between 2 Servers! In Episode 3, host Glenn Fiedler (@gafferongames) chats to Matt Shearing and Ben Cooper, founders of OneQode, who provide network and infrastructure that makes real-time, lag-free applications possible across the AsiaPac region. The episode explores how old network infrastructures just haven’t met the needs of real-time gaming; esports in particular. The guys discuss how their frustration with this 'status quo' drove them to create network and server infrastructure focused on servicing game developers and competitive players alike. And with Guam opening up major inter-regional opportunities, the OneQode team are finally opening up APAC for games and esports. Like OneQode, Network Next is focused on delivering low latency network performance driven by a desire to make the internet better for games.
