EU VPS Hosting Amsterdam, AMS-IX adjacent datacenter. EU VPS hosted on Linux VPS servers in the EU. VPS hosted on AMD EPYC compute nodes with large NVMe RAID10 storage arrays for increased performance and storage.
VPS servers fitted with ECC memory. VPS hosted using KVM virtualisation. EU IPv4 address space. EU VPS public ASN. Multi-homed EU VPS hosting transit. EU Operator and EU Data plane.
We are running a single region EU based company and our datacenter is based in Amsterdam (AMS). Our interconnection is provided by AMS-IX, the largest internet exchange in Europe (measured by the number of member networks). This allows for peering with a huge amount of ISP's, CDNs and content networks. A single hop is enough to connect to most of them.
900+ networks peered at the Amsterdam Internet Exchange (AMS-IX). This includes all major EU eyeball networks as well as many major EU CDNs and content networks. All of these networks are interconnected within a single hop from a server hosted in Amsterdam.
For many major EU cities (e.g. London, FRA, PAR, BRU, CPH and Nordic cities) the distance to Amsterdam is in the single-digit-to-low-teens ms range.
The operator is based within the EU and the data plane is running within the EU as well. Thus personal data of EU residents is processed within the EU by default and does not automatically get replicated to servers outside of the EU.
The Dutch grid where our Amsterdam data center is located is primarily powered by wind and solar power. There is also a lot of new storage capacity being added. For Amsterdam data center PUE figures are publicly available and are doing well compared to the rest of the industry.
Our servers are multi-homed on Tier 1 Internet Service Providers in Amsterdam. On top of that we provide direct peering with European eyeball ISPs and CDNs in the Amsterdam Internet Exchange (AMS-IX). Our operator's public ASN is clearly disclosed in the customer portal. In addition to the VPSes features, every VPS includes 1 IPv4 /32 and 1 routed /64 IPv6.
Here are the numbers. These are the medians from five runs of fio and Geekbench on a D-4 plan (2 vCPU Dedicated, 4 GB RAM, NVMe RAID10) in Amsterdam. Full methodology and all the raw logs are available on the benchmarks page.
Examples of real workloads on an EU VPS and why Amsterdam is the best location to run them.
4 cloud hosting environments for Multi-tenant SaaS platforms serving customers across the European Union. The p50 RTT for peering at AMS-IX is low for any EU country.
NW, DACH and Nordic e-commerce storefronts and their checkout APIs. Low single-digit RTT to all major capitals.
For Mail infrastructure we have Postfix and OpenSMTPD mail relays running on EU IPv4 addresses as configured by you (with optional rDNS). We can activate for you the outbound SMTP service after review of your specific configuration.
All personal data of European residents is stored within the EU. All operational logs, backups and snapshots are stored in-region by default.
One primary location for BuyVPS (Amsterdam) with a hot replica in the other primary location (New York, or vice versa). Same plans, same API, same prices in either city.
