Solution
Ms-meta.HK deployed a Web3-native Metaverse platform creating a digital twin of Hong Kong's King's Road in immersive 3D, requiring intensive GPU-accelerated rendering and global content delivery. The platform ingests user interaction data, NFT metadata, and livestream content through a security-hardened infrastructure, performing real-time 3D scene rendering via Elastic GPU Service and distributing high-definition visual content through Alibaba Cloud CDN to minimize loading times. Anti-DDoS and Web Application Firewall protect user accounts and transaction integrity while Security Center provides unified threat monitoring. The architecture enables concurrent access for thousands of users with fluent scene experience.
