Table Notes:

Vpn 0000 layer 2

Tier Level

Defines Reliability. Tier IV — this is the highest standard (no points of failure), Tier III — industrial standard with maintenance without downtime

Vpn 0001 layer 3

Uptime (SLA)

Percentage of server uptime per year. For example, 99.99% means less than 52 minutes of downtime per year.

Vpn 0002 layer 4

Priority Region

Choose a location that is as close as possible to your users. The shorter the physical distance, the lower the latency (ping) and the higher the website loading speed.

Vpn 0003 layer 5

Specialization

If your project requires special data protection, choose Geneva, if maximum reliability for banking is needed — Düsseldorf or Miami

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About Location Selection

How does the physical location of a data center affect my website?

The main factor is latency (ping). The closer the server is to your visitor, the faster the pages load. If your audience is in Ukraine, a server in Kyiv will provide instant response. If you are targeting the U.S. market, it’s better to choose Chicago or New Jersey.

What do Tier III and Tier IV standards mean in the description?

These are levels of fault tolerance:

— Tier III: Guarantees 99.98% uptime. All engineering systems are reserved, allowing repairs without stopping the servers.
— Tier IV: The highest standard (as in our data center in Düsseldorf or Miami). Everything is duplicated here, which almost eliminates the risk of downtime due to technical failures.

Where is the best place to store confidential data?

For projects where maximum legal protection and privacy are important, we recommend Geneva (Switzerland). The local data protection legislation is among the strictest in the world, and the Infomaniak data center provides the highest level of physical security.

Which data center should I choose for a gaming server or streaming?

For such tasks, bandwidth and DDoS protection are critically important.

— Amsterdam (Serverius) and Bucharest (M247) are leaders in bandwidth in Europe.
— Chicago (GigeNET) is an excellent choice for gamers from North America thanks to its built-in traffic filtering system.

Why do prices differ across locations?

The rental cost depends on local electricity tariffs, taxes, and the cost of telecommunications services. For example, locations in Bulgaria (Sofia) or Romania (Bucharest) are often more budget-friendly while maintaining high-quality service.
