I heard it’s bombastic
"Bombastic" is one way to put it, but for many businesses in the region, it’s been a critical reality check regarding infrastructure vulnerability. While major availability zones faced unprecedented physical disruptions, our Dubai facility remained 100% operational and unaffected due to its specialized, high-security location. We operate from a fortified, Tier-III+ environment with N+1 redundancy specifically to insulate our clients from this kind of external volatility.
I mean credit where it's due, but come on. Do you have your own air defense? If a drone hits it hits.
Don't get me wrong, I don't expect a data center to have it's own air defense, but you made it sound like it would sustain it.
you don't even own your own ASN lmao, your looking glass IPs are just m247. Why should anyone go with you over m247 directly?
A quite difficult situation, even AWS got hit. insurance usually does not cover acts of war, sadly. Condolences to any affected
I mean if was paying €20/m for a 1C/1G/64G VPS I would kinda expect the datacenter to have it...
I completely understand where you're coming from. However, in high-compliance jurisdictions like Curaçao or Dubai, the cost isn't just for the hardware, but for the Tier-IV certified infrastructure and physical data residency that meets strict LOK/CGA requirements. While standard VPS providers might offer lower prices, they often lack the physical security and legal compliance necessary for iGaming or FinTech operations. We focus on providing a 'safe haven' where your same-day setup and 99.93% uptime are backed by localized, audit-ready facilities.
Indeed, the scale of such events often transcends standard corporate protections, leaving even industry giants like AWS vulnerable to these uncontrollable circumstances. It is a sobering reminder of the risks involved in global infrastructure, and our thoughts are certainly with all the teams currently navigating these challenges.
How is your "physical security and legal compliance" going to fare against a direct bomb hit? Unless your datacentre is buried deep inside a bunker, it's not going to be any better than anywhere else in the current situation. Is it buried deep inside a bunker?
@Hosting_b2b said:
you mean giving some locals money, is their version of compliancy.
What about DDos Protection in Dubai for gameservers like a2s (CS1.6)
It would be difficult to bury it under the sand (those HVAC system will be ☠️)
Let’s be honest: in today's world, no one is 100% insured against a direct missile strike or a bomb hit. Unless a facility is located deep inside a specialized military-grade bunker, any surface infrastructure remains vulnerable to direct military action.
Our emphasis on 'physical security and legal compliance' is not an attempt to claim our servers are 'invincible.' Instead, it is an offer of a tangible alternative and rapid operational support.
This post is primarily for companies and professionals who need immediate infrastructure relocation to Dubai. We step in as a reliable partner with a ready-to-go foundation:
That's basically what I said then. Which is fine and all, but it's completely contrary to your opening paragraph:
I'm just raising it as it seems a bit distasteful to try to capitalise on other datacentres in your city suffering outages due to missile strikes, implying that your datacentre is somehow safe from all that, when your systems have exactly the same risk.
Who's talking about profit here? Absolutely not. We're talking about caring for our clients who are currently experiencing difficulties in Dubai and need a solution, that's all.
