Architecture

SYNKROS, inspired by some of the best practices found in other industries’ enterprise management solutions, was built largely from the ground up in a way that questioned gaming industry norms and focused on operators’ needs. In an industry where failure rates continue to be too high and adoption of cutting edge database technology too low, SYNKROS was designed so that casino operators would not have to utter the dreaded words, “I’m sorry, but our system is down,” to customers in increasingly competitive markets. The SYNKROS infrastructure, one more typically seen in the financial sector, utilizes the strength of an Oracle database, TCP/IP-based networks and Java development tools. As a result, KONAMI’s system has been celebrated for its unparalleled reliability.

The overall design is to guarantee maximum uptime. For the majority of our competition, their systems are integrated amongst various modules, whereas with SYNKROS, it’s one. It’s one database. And it doesn’t break.
