Written by Last friday I started moving the server to a new data center to improve the quality of you hosting. At this moment the transfer has been completed and I can inform you that there where no issues or downtime to report.
Server location
The server is still based in The Netherlands so don’t worry about privacy issues that you would have with a server outside of Europe. The server is located next to the A10 in Amsterdam and is 100% Co2 neutral!
Server upgrade
I also used the server change to upgrade the server for further improvement. The first results are definitely satisfying.

- Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor
- 4096MB RAM
- SSD only disks
- CentOS 6.6
- Direct Admin 1.50.1
The first results
- The server is almost 8 times faster then before..
- The connection went up from 1Gbits to 10Gbits. (speedtest)
- By changing the name servers the response time went down with 50%!
But that’s not all, due to these changes I was able to adjust all the web hosting packages. So you can benefit even more from the upgrade. All the packages have received more disk space and data traffic. Take a look at the full specifications here.
