Our network and data centers
Data centers in Strasbourg and Paris
Our game servers run in Strasbourg, right on the Rhine at the French–German border, in the middle of Western Europe. VPS and web hosting run in Paris, our second site. Both are in the EU, both are DDoS-protected, and both reach the rest of Europe over the same premium network.

Network and connectivity
Upstream SmartNet
Our servers reach the internet through SMARTNET Germany GmbH (AS203446). The Frankfurt am Main network operator specializes in DDoS mitigation and runs its network in several Equinix data centers.
Peering at Nine-IX
Nine-IX is a European internet exchange in 12 cities, from Paris to Frankfurt to Amsterdam. There we meet over 160 networks and exchange traffic directly, with no detour through third parties.
Filtered twice
SmartNet stops attacks inside its own network. UnioShield then checks the traffic once more right in front of your server, in every plan.
10 Gbit/s per host
Every VPS host has a symmetrical 10 Gbit/s uplink. Downloads, backups and updates run without a bottleneck at the server.
10 direct interconnections at Nine-IX
A direct path to your visitors’ and players’ internet providers, to major clouds and content platforms. Your data arrives faster.
