Technique
For those of you who want to know a little more in-depth how our environment looks and works, we are happy to share with you.
We want to be transparent so that you as a customer can feel safe with your data with us.
Storage
Storage media: SSD
We exclusively use SSD for storage in active environments. This is because an SSD is both much faster but also much more power efficient than an old-fashioned spinning hard drive.
For the more experienced, it may be fun to know that we also run SSD disks with SAS and NVMe to get high performance on the storage solution.
Redundancy
Our storage solution is backed by a system called Ceph. Ceph is the most used in this type of server solution and is very powerful, scalable and reliable.
Very simply, you can say that Ceph functions as "RAID over the network". Which means that the data is still just as accessible if a hard drive, or an entire server were to go down or need service.
Backup
When you use our VPS service, you yourself are responsible for backing up the content on your server. We are only responsible for backups of our platform and the system itself.
If you want help with backups in your VPS, you can always buy Managed VPS as an additional service and we will help you.
Network
Internet access
We have been our own internet provider since 2024. This means that we deliver the internet services ourselves for all our services. This gives us full control over capacity, security and redundancy.
High speed
Ports, switches and network cards are at speeds up to 100 Gbit/s to ensure fast and stable connectivity.
Firewall to instances
All VPSs/instances in our cloud services have access to a firewall, where rules can be set up and applied to traffic before it reaches or leaves the virtual server.
Firewall is included in all cloud instances. Read more about how the cloud firewall works.
Virtualization environment
Hypervisor
Canonical (the developers of Ubuntu) has developed a modern and well-functioning virtualization platform. Virtual machines are qemu-based and provide very good performance inside the virtual server.
CPU speeds
We have chosen to focus on fast clock speeds on the processors to offer an attractive virtualization environment that never feels slow.
