99.9% uptime sounds reliable, until you realise it means 8+ hours of downtime a year. For an iGaming operator, it is a business threat. One hour offline during a major promo can erase months of planning, budget, and player trust. Multiply that by eight.

Internet Vikings, a leading hosting provider for the iGaming and sports betting sector, has achieved a VMware Premier partner status. This enables the company to offer its clients protection against the financial impacts of the latest VMware’s licensing changes.

VMware by Broadcom announced the discontinuation of perpetual licenses and SaaS, with a shift towards a subscription-based model. This move introduces improved services for VCF (VMware Cloud Foundation) and VVF (VMware vSphere Foundation) but can increase costs for clients requiring specific features. This licensing overhaul poses challenges across many sectors, including iGaming and sports betting.

​Recognizing the upcoming impact that businesses could face, Internet Vikings is glad to have been selected as a VMware Premier partner, which enables the company to assist clients in transitioning smoothly and mitigating potential cost increases.

Internet Vikings will also extend a white label solution to partners who don’t have direct access to VCSP licensing options through Broadcom, guaranteeing broad-based support and accessibility.

Kristoffer Ottosson, COO at Internet Vikings, states: “VMware’s shift to subscription licensing impacts the digital infrastructure within the iGaming and sports betting industry. As a VMware Premier partner, we’re prepared to help our clients adapt, providing them with access to scalable and economical solutions.”

“Together with our expertise and the benefits of the Premier Partner Program, we can help avoid any unnecessary expenses during the transition. This positions us as a reliable, long-term partner that stays ahead of the licensed iGaming and sports betting industry changes,” Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder adds.

Internet Vikings’ dedication goes beyond mitigating the immediate cost impact of VMware’s licensing changes. The partnership underscores Internet Vikings’ commitment to providing client-centric solutions meeting customer needs.
