Data gets to where it needs to be–wherever, whenever and however possible.
Data centres, hardware, SLAs and support are rightfully important. But often times the network – what connects you to your end users – is overlooked. Historically, networks are what cause many of the huge outages and extended downtime events. Which is why PEER 1 Hosting has invested so much time, money and expertise into building and evolving our proprietary FastFiber Network.
Very few hosting providers own their own networks – and none except PEER 1 Hosting has successfully run and refined one for over a decade. Over time, we have created a 10Gbps network that’s more than fast, redundant and resilient. It’s actually intelligent – recognizing potential traffic jams and latencies and helping our Network Operations Centre (NOC) experts monitor and reroute data to optimal routes.
Linking together our 18 data centres in EMEA and North America, not one inch of our 15,000 miles of fibre is shared. It’s strictly our hosting customers on our network. Our NOC can anticipate and mitigate potential issues that could affect your data transfers, because at any given moment it knows what our other clients’ data needs are.
Features and Benefits
Owning our own network brings a lot of built-in benefits to our customers. Look at other providers that rely entirely on shared networks, and you will see what we mean.
The Speed of a Proprietary Network Backbone
With over 15,000 miles of fibre connecting 18 data centres and PoPs, the FastFiber Network carries only PEER 1 Hosting traffic to keep data paths as uncluttered, fast and secure as possible.
Optimized Routing
The network and our NOC experts proactively identify potential network obstacles and navigate your traffic down paths of least resistance and mitigate the effects of DDoS attacks.
Peered to the Right Network Partners
Being connected to over 1,000 network providers and multiple Tier 1 upstream providers, your data speed and performance do not end once you leave the FastFiber Network.
Proprietary CDN and AnyCast DNS
Built with our network and infrastructure in mind, our RapidEdge CDN and AnyCast DNS services help you accelerate your business even more on the FastFiber Network.
