Amsterdam Netherlands
Amsterdam and AMS-IX are the other pole of European connectivity. Dutch transit is dense and competitively priced, which is why so much high-bandwidth hosting concentrates here. Our Amsterdam servers are in Equinix AM6.

What to run in Amsterdam
Choosing a site is mostly about where your users are. Here is where Amsterdam is the right answer.
- High-bandwidth distribution and streaming origins
- A second European site alongside Frankfurt
- Benelux, UK and Nordic end users
- Transit-heavy applications
Connectivity in Amsterdam
AMS-IX in Amsterdam is one of the two largest exchanges in Europe alongside DE-CIX. Dutch transit is unusually competitive, which is the underlying reason so much high-bandwidth and streaming infrastructure concentrates in the Netherlands.
Jurisdiction and data protection
The Netherlands, inside the EU and the EEA, with GDPR in force. Dutch hosting law is well tested and the country has a long-standing carrier-neutral colocation market.
Who this site reaches well
Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Nordics, plus strong transatlantic paths.
Pair it with Frankfurt
Frankfurt gives you a second Western European city on a different exchange — the standard pairing for European workloads that need two sites. See Frankfurt
Where Amsterdam is the wrong choice
Dutch hosting attracts a lot of abuse traffic, so upstream networks filter Dutch ranges more aggressively than most. If deliverability of outbound email matters, plan for it rather than assuming a clean IP.
Platform and stock
KVM VPS here run on the same platform as our other VPS sites: KVM virtualisation, full root and a browser console from deploy, unmetered traffic and 100 Gbps of always-on DDoS protection at Layer 3 and Layer 4. Dedicated servers come with full root and a guaranteed 1 Gbps unmetered port. Stock varies by site — if a configuration is not currently available in Amsterdam we will say so and point you at the nearest site that has it, rather than substituting hardware quietly.
