Tencent Cloud Recognized as a Leader in Omdia’s Global Cloud Platforms for Games 2026 Report for Second Consecutive Year

Recognition underscores Tencent Cloud’s commitment to empowering game developers with industry-leading AI-powered solutions and deep gaming expertise

HONG KONG, Aug. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Tencent Cloud, the cloud business of global technology company Tencent, has been named a “Leader” in the “Omdia Market Radar: Cloud Platforms for Games 2026” report. The company received the highest rating of “Advanced” in four key areas: Game Servers, Multiplayer Services, AI & Machine Learning, and LiveOps, highlighting its strengths across core gaming infrastructure, live operations, and AI-driven innovation for game developers worldwide.

Published by global market research and advisory firm Omdia, the report marks the second consecutive year Tencent Cloud has been recognized as a Market Leader. Omdia noted Tencent Cloud’s unique position in the gaming industry, with a cloud platform built on infrastructure originally developed to support Tencent’s own game portfolio. The report further recognized Tencent Cloud’s deep gaming expertise, extensive operational experience, and continued investment in AI-powered technologies that support game development, live operations, and player engagement.

Embedding AI Capabilities Across the Gaming Lifecycle

Over the past year, Tencent Cloud has made AI the cornerstone of its gaming solutions. Leveraging Tencent Games’ deep well of proprietary AI technology and operational experience, the company has successfully embedded large AI models and intelligent agents directly into the game development pipeline. Today, Tencent Cloud supports the entire game lifecycle, from initial art and design to coding, testing, live-ops, and growth. By automating and enhancing tasks like creative ideation, code generation, data analysis, and asset creation, Tencent Cloud empowers development teams to maximize their efficiency and focus on what matters most: unleashing their creativity.

Reflecting the growing adoption of AI in gaming, Tencent Cloud’s gaming AI solutions have supported more than 150 game developing companies over the past three months, while AI Agent usage across the gaming industry has increased by more than three times year-over-year. Tencent Cloud’s AI-powered productivity solutions such as CodeBuddy and WorkBuddy, help streamline coding, content production, project management, data analysis, and operational workflows, improving efficiency across both technical and non-technical teams.

AI in Action: Powering Games Across the Global Stage

For a live-service strategy RPG that spans multiple regions globally — like ZLONGAME’s Dragon Traveler — virtually every decision, from user acquisition and launch timing to version updates, hinges on data. The studio deployed WorkBuddy to fundamentally rethink how that data reaches the right teams. Instead of routing every request through a dedicated data team, operations, marketing, and customer service staff now pull insights on their own through WorkBuddy, dramatically shortening the time from question to action.

At Yoozoo Games, the focus has been on transforming content and creative production. With WorkBuddy now embedded across more than 75% of the workforce, non-technical roles — planners, artists, and marketers — can take a creative brief and, through AI agents, generate storyboard scripts, layer in images, video, and voiceovers, and deliver a finished video asset. A process that once took several days has been compressed to roughly 20 minutes, making AI-powered content creation part of the organization’s daily rhythm.

Yokaverse took AI directly into the player experience. Within its strategy card mobile game, Game of Heroes: Three Kingdoms, the studio integrated Tencent Cloud’s intelligent agent platform to deliver real-time hero recommendations, in-game strategy Q&A, and character introductions — giving players immediate, contextual advice on character selection, skill usage, and team composition right when they need it.

Giant Network pushed the concept even further by turning AI into the opponent. In titles including Super Sus, the studio worked with Tencent Cloud to build AI-driven NPC gameplay, where models power non-player characters that react and take actions in real time — making AI not just a tool behind the scenes, but a participant inside the game itself.

Driving the Future of Gaming Innovation

Today, Tencent Cloud’s global infrastructure footprint spans 23 geographic regions, 66 availability zones, and more than 3,000 acceleration nodes worldwide. Supporting customers across Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and beyond, Tencent Cloud has become the preferred cloud provider for more than 98% of China’s leading game companies — including Xishanju, Perfect World Games, and Yokaverse — with its gaming AI capabilities spanning the full chain from data analysis and R&D efficiency to creative production and in-game experiences.

Looking ahead, Tencent Cloud will continue investing in AI technologies, intelligent agents, gaming-focused cloud solutions, and global infrastructure. With growing adoption across international markets, gaming remains a key pillar of Tencent Cloud’s growth strategy worldwide. By combining deep gaming expertise with continuous AI innovations, Tencent Cloud remains committed to helping developers work smarter, empowering them to create the next generation of engaging, immersive gaming experiences for a global audience.

Rocket Alumni Solutions Puts Recognition at the Center of School Community Engagement

Published

By

Interactive storytelling gives students, families and alumni a way to discover the people, achievements and traditions that shape their school.

BOSTON, Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Rocket Alumni Solutions helps schools turn their history and achievements into a shared community experience. Serving 1,500+ schools and organizations, the company provides interactive recognition software that brings alumni stories, student accomplishments, school records and yearbooks together on campus touchscreens and the web.

A school’s story includes the students who set records, the teachers who shaped generations, the volunteers who supported a program and the graduates who carried its traditions forward. Rocket gives schools a place to tell those stories with the photographs, biographies and historical context behind each name.

The company’s approach centers community engagement on something personal: giving people a way to find their connection to a school and explore the contributions of others. Its recognition engine makes room for both established traditions and the achievements being added to that history today.

Recognition that reflects the whole school

Rocket’s History Showcase supports recognition across academics, athletics, the arts, alumni, staff, donors and community service. Schools can organize collections around their own priorities, from a hall of fame or scholarship program to an archive of student leadership and performing arts.

Searchable profiles let visitors explore the people behind an award. Team collections can bring together rosters, photographs and season stories. Donor recognition can explain the people behind a scholarship, building or program, while alumni profiles can show students where a graduate’s path began.

This flexibility gives school leaders a practical way to broaden the stories they share. An athletic induction can sit alongside academic honors, an educator tribute or a volunteer’s contribution, with each collection reflecting a different part of the same community.

A shared history on campus and beyond

Rocket makes recognition available where people gather and where they live. A compatible touchscreen gives visitors a place to explore during a campus visit, reunion or induction ceremony. The web-based showcase lets alumni and families revisit those stories without returning to the building.

Digital yearbooks and photo archives add another way to discover a school’s past. A returning graduate can look for a class photograph, a student can explore an earlier generation’s activities, and a family can browse the history of a team or tradition. Those possibilities give schools concrete ways to use their collections throughout the year.

The archive also gives an event a lasting home. Schools can prepare profiles for an induction or assemble historical material for an anniversary, then keep the collection available after the celebration ends.

A collection that grows with the community

Rocket lets staff maintain recognition content through a browser, adding new honorees, updating records and building out historical collections over time. Unlimited content gives schools room to keep expanding the archive as more material becomes available.

A project does not require every decade of school history to be organized before work begins. Schools can start with one meaningful collection, such as an upcoming induction class, a set of yearbooks or a group of alumni profiles, and establish a plan for what comes next.

Rocket offers complimentary data entry, content preparation and project support to help bring that first collection into use. Its team works with schools on source materials, responsibilities and display setup, with 24/7 support available as the recognition program continues.

From preserving a story to sharing it

Recognition is part of Rocket’s wider School Engagement System. Alongside History Showcase, Rocket offers Media Management to organize source material, Digital Signage for timely campus messages and Social Media Graphics for branded visual communications. Hardware and Data Entry & Project Management support the work of bringing a project to campus.

These offerings address different parts of a school’s storytelling effort: maintaining the archive, finding the right photograph, sharing a current achievement and giving visitors a place to explore. Schools can choose a starting point around the people they want to recognize and the material they already have.

About Rocket Alumni Solutions

Rocket Alumni Solutions partners with more than 1,500 schools and organizations, including the PGA Tour, New York University, Arizona State University and Virginia Tech. The company helps communities celebrate achievements, preserve their history and recognize the people who shaped them.

Rocket Alumni Solutions’ touchscreen software maintains an 80 Net Promoter Score, reflecting exceptional ease of use and customer satisfaction. Its interactive touchscreen software helps schools create digital Halls of Fame, donor recognition walls, record boards and campus recognition displays that celebrate community achievements and preserve institutional history.

Rocket Alumni Solutions serves schools and organizations of all sizes. The platform offers pre-built templates and remote content management. Schools receive ongoing support as their recognition collections grow.

Integris Composites Joins International Sea Power Conference Aboard HMS Prince of Wales

Silver Partner at the Royal Navy’s flagship maritime conference highlights lightweight composite armor that protects ships and crews without the weight of steel

OSLO, Norway, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Integris Composites, a global engineering company specializing in composite armor and survivability systems, is attending the SEA POWER and the Atlantic Future Forum conferences hosted on HMS Prince of Wales in Oslo, Norway.

Integris armor solutions are protecting surface combatants, patrol craft and the crews who operate them — work that includes ballistic protection for Finland’s new Pohjanmaa-class corvettes and support for the upkeep program for the Royal Navy’s Type 45 destroyers.

Integris is a Silver Partner of the International Sea Power Conference (ISPC 2026), which took place yesterday aboard the Royal Navy aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales. ISPC, the Royal Navy’s annual flagship conference, brings together naval leaders, policymakers and industry to consider how maritime nations can deter aggression and protect the sea lanes.

Integris executives are attending the Atlantic Future Forum, which follows aboard the same ship Nov. 11-12.

“As navies add uncrewed, autonomous vessels in the drive for innovation, protection of the crewed ships that now carry more sensors and more weapons cannot be an afterthought,” said Andrew Bonham, president and CEO of Integris Composites. “Integris’ European naval teams have spent years engineering protection into ships, ensuring survivability does not cost a vessel its speed, range or payload.

“ISPC is where the people who will shape the next generation of fleets meet, and we are glad to be part of that conversation,” Bonham said.

A CHANGING THREAT AT SEA

The threat to ships has widened. Attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea have shown how drones and missiles can put pressure on a global chokepoint, and Ukraine’s campaign in the Black Sea has shown how quickly uncrewed systems can change the balance between fleets and coastal forces. In the High North and the Arctic, allied navies are operating more often, for longer and in harsher conditions.

“Each of those trends raises the same question: How can you protect vessels, aircraft, land vehicles and sensor technologies and reduce the signature on all of them without adding weight? The answer is an increasing adoption of lighter composite armor systems,” Bonham said.

Integris systems integrate ceramics, ultra-high-strength polyethylene and aramid fibers, high-performance unidirectional (UD) laminates — and at times steel — to provide protection at a fraction of the weight of current armor systems. Lower weight supports speed and maneuverability, fuel economy, mission range and payload flexibility, Bonham said. Integris’ naval protection solutions are deployed on a wide range of vessels worldwide, including patrol craft, corvettes, amphibious platforms and command vessels. The company is also experimenting with emerging materials such as graphene and new high-strength fibers.

PROVEN ON NAVAL PROGRAMS

Integris is supplying its naval ballistic protective systems for four next-generation vessels being built by Rauma Marine Constructions for Finland’s major naval modernization project, Squadron 2020. The Pohjanmaa-class corvettes are intended to secure year-round maritime defense in the icy Baltic Sea.

“We worked together with the shipbuilder to fully integrate the protection into the ship design, meeting survivability requirements without compromising speed, range or payload,” said David Cordova, chief commercial officer of Integris Composites USA.

For the Royal Navy’s Type 45 destroyer upkeep program, Integris is supplying new and replacement ballistic protection systems in collaboration with BAE Systems.

“The lesson of the last few years is that not only does protection have to move at the speed of the threat, but we need to develop intelligent armor that can lower the platform signature,” Cordova said. “Drones and uncrewed systems are changing what ships, vehicles and crews have to survive, and they are changing it in months, not decades.

“We are here, and at other major defense events to bring those of us who design protection closer to those who depend on it. This is key to how we’ll shorten the path from a new threat to a fielded solution,” Cordova said.

Integris has operations in North America, Europe and Asia, with manufacturing in Denmark, France and the United States and offices in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The company took part in the Pacific Future Forum aboard HMS Prince of Wales in Tokyo in August 2025.

ABOUT INTEGRIS COMPOSITES

Integris Composites is a global engineering company specializing in composite armor for land vehicles, aircraft, naval vessels, protective housings for optronics and other sensitive technologies, and personal protection. With more than 30 years of experience, the company has earned Tier 1 supplier status with major aerospace original equipment manufacturers, including Bell, Boeing, Airbus and Embraer. Known as TenCate Advanced Armor until it was renamed Integris Composites in 2023, the business has built a reputation for innovative survivability solutions across military, law enforcement and security applications worldwide.
