"Gaming publishers face 3 major challenges when faced with the option of going live" says Alex Manessi, program director for the upcoming Cloud Gaming USA Conference. He continues "latency, scalability and monetization are all areas publishers are having the most challenges around and cloud storage, infrastructure and monetization firms are perfectly positioned to help them."

Leading providers including Gaikai, Swrve, Cleverbridge, Interxion, Vindicia, Aardvark Swift and more have already taken up their positions to help publishers overcome their issues and challenges at the conference.
