Internet Vikings Expands into Latin America with New Data Center
Internet Vikings, the leading licensed hosting provider, announces its entry into Latin America with a new data center. Signaling a beneficial move forward for the company, it continues to broaden its service offerings in response to the growing licensed iGaming and online sports betting sector in the region.
Seeing the potential in the regulated Latin America’s iGaming and Sports Betting market, Rickard Vikström, Founder and CEO of Internet Vikings, led the company’s efforts to establish a presence in the continent. “Entering into Latin America was not only a strategic decision for growth but also a commitment to provide local regulated operators with access to VMware cloud hosting, compliant with instant scaling on-demand,” Vikström stated.
New regulations and a steadily growing gambling industry position Latin America prominently within the global iGaming arena. Internet Vikings is ready to leverage these opportunities by offering reliable and secure hosting services that enable operators to develop in this competitive environment.
Kristoffer Ottosson, COO of Internet Vikings, emphasized the company’s obligation to support its clients’ efforts in new territories. “Our launch into Latin America underscores our dedication to providing the industry with a heightened level of cybersecurity, and infrastructure to support our clients effectively”, Ottosson remarked. “We are confident that our partnership with local stakeholders, combined with our VMware cloud hosting services, will enable us to deliver value to current and potential operators in the area.”
As Internet Vikings extends its global presence, with the introduction of tailored VMware cloud hosting services in Latin America, its focus remains on providing innovative solutions that fuel growth and improve user experiences to meet the specific needs of the market.

Arizona
Internet Vikings Approved to Offer VMware Private Cloud Hosting in Arizona
Internet Vikings, a licensed in-state hosting provider for iGaming and online sports betting, has received official approval from the Arizona Department of Gaming to launch its VMware-based private cloud hosting solutions. This achievement allows the company to provide secure and scalable hosting for licensed operators taking sports betting wagers across Arizona, fully complying with the Arizona Administrative Code (A.A.C).
This builds on Internet Vikings’ success in May 2023, when the company became the first online sports betting hosting provider fully licensed in Arizona. The VMware cloud solutions provided by Internet Vikings meet the regulatory and operational demands of the market, ensuring operators in the state can count on compliant infrastructure.
“Our VMware cloud hosting solutions are designed to support the iGaming and online sports betting markets with the highest levels of performance, security, and compliance. The team is pleased to continuously meet the requirements set forth by the states, and this most recent authorization in Arizona is a great step forward for us,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings.
“By offering private cloud hosting on VMware, Internet Vikings ensures clients have access to assured redundancy, disaster recovery, and on-demand scaling.

With a presence now firmly established in Arizona, Internet Vikings continues supporting online sports betting operators in complying with state regulations while delivering the infrastructure best suited to the customers needs.
EveryMatrix
Internet Vikings and EveryMatrix Strengthen Partnership for Secure Disaster Recovery in West Virginia
Internet Vikings, a licensed in-state cloud hosting provider for iGaming and online sports betting and EveryMatrix, a leading technology provider delivering iGaming software, solutions, content, and services, are expanding their partnership in West Virginia to meet stringent regulatory requirements and strengthen disaster recovery capabilities.
West Virginia regulations require iGaming companies to maintain a physically separate, redundant data center within the state to guarantee service continuity. EveryMatrix, already leveraging Internet Vikings’ hosting solutions in West Virginia, has chosen to utilize their geographically separate secondary data center for complete redundancy.
“We are happy to build upon our existing partnership with EveryMatrix,” said Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings. “Our disaster recovery capabilities and state-specific compliance, combined with our customer-focused solutions, position us perfectly to support EveryMatrix’s continued success in West Virginia.”
Customers expect uninterrupted service, and physical redundancy ensures a reliable and consistent user experience. EveryMatrix has demonstrated an assurance to high availability and security, enhancing the operator’s already stellar reputation.
Internet Vikings recognized the need for a second West Virginia data center back in 2023 to provide the state’s first opportunity for physical redundancy. In response to the heightened risk posed by ransomware attacks and the significant financial losses they can cause, disaster recovery has emerged as a priority and regulatory must-have within the state. This expanded partnership demonstrates Internet Vikings’ unique value proposition. The company is an ideal choice for any iGaming operator or supplier seeking a reliable, separate, redundant hosting provider within West Virginia.
EveryMatrix’s recent recognition as the MiGEA Malta iGaming Excellence Award winner for Best Casino Provider of the Year 2024 further emphasizes their exceptional experiences in the iGaming markets. Their choice in Internet Vikings as their hosting partner confirms the importance of a strong and reliable foundation for achieving these goals.
