It recently reached a milestone by becoming the first US lottery to operate its iLottery via a cloud-based program. NeoPollard Interactive (NPi) released an official statement that recognized the state lottery for its achievement.
The Virginia Lottery has been powered by NPi since 2016, when the group first launched its eSubscriptions. Part of the lottery’s recent cloud implementation included NPi’s central gaming system (CGS) for draw games, NeoDraw and Neoplay, an eInstants remote gaming server (RGS).
