Why Amsterdam

Amsterdam is a major European network hub — not because of marketing, but because of infrastructure. AMS-IX, dense upstream peering, and a mature data center ecosystem make it one of the strongest hosting locations in Europe.

AMS-IX Peering

Amsterdam Internet Exchange is one of the world's largest by traffic volume. Direct peering with major networks means shorter paths and lower latency for traffic across Europe.

Central European Position

Amsterdam sits at the heart of Western Europe's network topology. Strong connectivity to Germany, France, the UK, Scandinavia, and the rest of the continent.

Mature Hosting Market

The Netherlands has a well-established hosting ecosystem with reliable power, established data center infrastructure, and a deep pool of upstream providers.

Premium Upstream Providers

Multiple tier-1 upstream connections ensure your traffic takes efficient paths. Fewer hops between your server and your users means faster responses.

European Connectivity

Strong connectivity isn't about claiming the lowest latency number — it's about consistent, reliable network paths to the destinations that matter for your workload.

Strong EU Connectivity

Direct peering and premium transit deliver consistent, low-latency connections across Europe. Your applications respond quickly for users in the EU.

Reach Beyond Europe

Premium upstream providers offer fast routes to North America and Asia. Amsterdam's position as a network hub means good global reachability from a single European location.

10 Gbps Network Uplink

Every VPS connects to a 10 Gbps port with 4 TB to 32 TB monthly bandwidth depending on your plan. No artificial throttling within your allocation.

IPv4 + IPv6 Included

Every VPS gets a dedicated IPv4 address and a /64 IPv6 subnet. Dual-stack networking is standard — no extra fees for basic connectivity.

Stable Environment

Infrastructure reliability depends on more than hardware. The jurisdiction, regulatory environment, and physical infrastructure ecosystem all matter for long-term hosting stability.

EU Regulatory Framework

The Netherlands is an EU member state. Your infrastructure operates within EU regulatory frameworks, including GDPR for data protection — clear rules in a transparent legal environment.

Stable Jurisdiction

The Netherlands is politically stable with strong rule of law, established data protection legislation, and a predictable regulatory environment for hosting businesses.

Reliable Power & Cooling

Dutch data centers benefit from a temperate climate and a reliable power grid. The Netherlands is a well-established data center market with strong infrastructure standards.

99.9% Uptime SLA

Redundant systems and proactive monitoring keep your VPS online. Our uptime commitment is backed by an SLA — not just a marketing number.

Built for Real Workloads

Amsterdam-based infrastructure serves a wide range of workloads. Here is how location translates to practical benefits for common VPS use cases.

Websites & Web Apps

Serve European visitors from infrastructure that's close to them. Lower latency means faster page loads, better user experience, and improved search engine performance.

Databases

Run MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, and MongoDB close to your application servers. Network latency between your app and database directly affects query response times.

Self-Hosted Applications

Host Nextcloud, Matrix, Gitea, and other self-hosted software on EU-based infrastructure. Keep your data in a GDPR jurisdiction by design.

VPN & Proxy Servers

Deploy WireGuard or OpenVPN on Amsterdam-based infrastructure. Strong European connectivity means fast VPN tunnels for EU-based users and teams.
