Prime Strategy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter, "Prime Strategy") announced the release of Japan's first case study of WEXAL installation on a shared hosting server by GMO Internet Group, Inc. (hereinafter, "GMO Internet Group").

GMO Internet Group Offers "WEXAL" on Their Shared Servers, Enabling Next-Generation Acceleration for More Client Sites - First Class Service, Second to None! -

Shared hosting servers in Japan were competing with similar specifications and service lineups, making differentiation difficult. GMO Internet Group was looking for a front-end acceleration solution to achieve higher speeds.

GMO Internet Group wanted to contribute to clients' businesses by providing standard features that stepped into content optimization and UX improvement, features that would increase new subscriptions and retention rates.

So, GMO Internet Group partnered with Prime Strategy to implement WEXAL into their service.

And GMO Internet Group were able to provide many of their clients with an easy one-click speed-up feature. This made them the first Japanese shared web hosting service to adopt WEXAL, and they gained a new core competence. As a result, the number of subscriptions to their service increased and the retention rate also improved.

Comment from Mr. Fumito Aikawa, Executive Lead, ConoHa Business Department, GMO Internet Group, Inc.:

We released ConoHa WING in 2018, and it is the fastest* shared web hosting in Japan. We wanted to make things "faster and easier" as many of our clients use the system for their blogs and corporate websites.

This is because more and more people have been creating websites for the first time as part of their side businesses or companies, and it is necessary to provide a service with SEO measures and faster display speeds from the time the website is launched, even without specialized knowledge.

In terms of infrastructure, we had been striving for high speed since the service was released. However, we needed to find the best solution to improve performance at the front end, since there were challenges in this area. We contacted Prime Strategy., which provides their KUSANAGI virtual machine, to find the best solution. We introduced WEXAL as standard feature to our service, which had previously been difficult to use on shared servers. We successfully boosted many clients' website speeds by providing a feature that could be enabled with one click. Therefore, we contributed to the services of the internet industry by this new feature.

*April 2023 GMO Internet Group research. Measured by h2load for each of the lowest ranked plans for the top 10 services with 90% or more of the domestic market share in Japan.
