Five World Class Data Centers
Offering multiple data facilities can often times be confusing. In order to choose the new home for your hosting, understanding the differences in our networks is important.
Every Solar VPS US data facility uses fully redundant BGP routing. Solar VPS offers a range of ip address options to customers including ip addresses provided by our data facilities and ip addresses assigned to Solar VPS direction from ARIN. US facilities are built around VLAN sharing methodologies which means that anywhere from 2-5 VPS nodes sharing a single VLAN. This allows convenient customers server migrations from one VPS node to another without the need for changing up addresses. Windows VPS, Windows DDS and Linux VPS are always hosted on diverse VLANs.
Solar VPS on staff Cisco Certified professionals handle network management from redundant Cisco 3500 series routers to Cisco 2900 distribution switches. This allows for both troubleshooting and network changes without relying on data facility staff and thus provides better service to customers.
The Solar VPS UK based data facility is constructed somewhat differently than US facilities. Given the way data networks are built in the UK, direct uplinks are provided from Cisco 2900 series distribution switches to data facility edge and core routers. All VPS nodes on a single distribution switch share a single VLAN and thus allow for convenient server migrations. While VLANs are not handled on Solar VPS UK based network devices, Solar VPS Cisco Certified Professionals carefully handle network connectivity and SNMP monitoring on all distribution switches in the UK facility.
Regardless of the data facility customers choose, Solar VPS provides fast, low latency service in all locations. All Solar VPS networks provide high performance connectivity with exceptional network uptime.

Redundant Routing
Scalability
The 110 Meadowlands facility buys IP transit bandwidth from multiple providers including XO/Algx, Abovenet, Level3, Sprint, Tiscali, T-Systems and Global Crossing. All transit connections are routed over single or double 1Gbps ethernet links which gives you multi-gigabit data capacity for high scalability and future growth.
99.9% Network Uptime
Enterprise Class Bandwidth
High and unintrerrupted bandwidth through multiple POP's over all Tier 1 providers.
Immediate Response
The 110 Meadowlands network is supported by some of the finest engineers with multi-year experience building and maintaining networks for top providers such as UUNet, Qwest and XO. The network engineers carry certification from top network equipment venders such as Cisco, Juniper Networks, Nortel Network and more.
Maintenance
We have highly trained network and system engineers available on-site 24/7/365, capable of delivering customer solutions to the hosting needs of the customers.
Miami
Our Miami, Florida POP is part of the PEER1 SuperNetworkTM which is made up of over a dozen worldwide data centers and 21 points of presence. The PEER1 SuperNetworkTM boasts excellent connectivity to all areas of the world.
SuperNetworkTM
The PEER1 SuperNetwork delivers high throughput and packet-per-second capability to meet the intensive needs of manged hosting in today's online business. PEER1 built the network through a series of dedicated links between all PEER1 data centers using multiple high-speed connections. They coupled this with peering relationships with over 500 networks and multiple Tier 1 upstream providers.
Advantages of Peering
Using a combination of Tier 1 upstream providers and over 500 peering relationships gives the PEER1 network a strategic advantage over other networks. This keeps bandwidth costs low, increases capacity, and maximizes control. Since PEER1 actively pursues peer-to-peer relationships with remote networks, they bypass third party networks that would otherwise reside in between. That means routing and connection speeds are improved.

United Kingdom
Euroconnex operates one of Europe's most extensive networks covering 6 countries, including data centres in Eastern Europe. The pan-European network operates at 1Gbit/second with future capacities for 10Gbits throughput, utilising prover carrier-class equipment from manufacturers including Cisco Systems and Extreme Networks. Euroconnex peers directly with most Tier-1 and Tier-2 providers, allowing direct access to European destinations with the shortest possible path. The Euroconnex network currently covers France, Germany, United Kingdom, Holland, Austria and Hungary with expansion to Czech Republic, Ireland and Spain following soon.
Network Hardware
All network operates in a redundant fashion, with dual power supplies, dual management cards and processors along with dual line cards for no single point of failure. The network includes leased diverse redundant capacity from the London Docklands hub to the BlueSquare data center, providing a total current capacity of some 20Gbits per seconds, one of the highest line rates in the industry.
Network Presence
The network PoP's (Points of Presence) are connected via a fiber optic metro ring based in the London docklands, with routing equipment located in each data center, thus never dependant upon one data center for connectivity, should power fail at any particular facility. The network takes connections from peers and providers at speeds no less than 1Gbit in capacity from two or more buildings, ensuring the network always has a spare redundant capacity available.
