TECHNIC

The data center:

We are housed in the data center of KPN EuroRings B.V. in Düsseldorf (Germany), which fulfills the high standards and provides an high performance connection. The data center is equipped with a redundant power supply via UPS (uninterruptible power supply) and emergency power generators, climate control and a gas extinguishing system.

KPN is the leading telecommunications and ICT service provider in the Netherlands and offers their end users-products (telephone, internet and television) well as B2B beneftis. This makes them not only complement their portfolio, it expand their own network through the demands of their customers. With locations around the world KPN is a very reliable partner - that's why we have made a good decision.


The Network:

Our technical infrstructure consists of components from Cisco Systems and Juniper Networks which ensure the professional operation. The systems are connected with 3 Gbit/s and the current infrastructure is able to be connected with 10 Gbit/s without a hardware upgrade. So we are optimally equipped for the challenges of the future.

The routing is the core function of an ISP (Internet Service Provider) which is why there should be no compromise. We have confidence in this very important task to the manufacturer Juniper Networks with its high-end products in the segment of carrier-class router. Our connectivity is provided by three independent carriers and allows us to guarantee an availability of 99% per year. We have chosen us for two international and a regional carrier - Tinet, Cogent and Clanotopia.


Our servers:

For our VPS we only use high quality systems from DELL and Supermirco. We rely on years of expertise in the server business and are aware of their abilities. The internal components come from reputable manufacturers such as Intel, Cisco, Kingston, Samsung and many more. Our goal is to impress you with our VPS and that only works with high quality equipment.
