VPS.NET Announces Newest Data Center Locations: Atlanta, Phoenix and Seattle
In our next adventure in providing high performance, low cost SSD-VPS locations, VPS.NET is heading to Atlanta, Georgia, Phoenix, Arizona and Seattle, Washington.
As the old adage states, location, location, location. But we aren’t talking about business real estate, we are discussing data center locations. VPS.NET knows that your data location is critical when considering end user speeds. This is exactly why we are constantly on the lookout for new exciting locations to place your data precisely where it is needed.
This time, our team headed south to three new amazing cities – but why? Let’s take a look at what each location offers VPS.NET clients.
Welcome to Atlanta!
According to NPR’s All Tech Considered, Atlanta has been recently given the nickname as the Silicon Valley of the South. This is largely based on a concentration of Angel investors. The influx of funding for small tech startups has created a demand for reliable, redundant data center locations.
According to Somesh Dash, directors of Atlanta-based fraud detection company Pindrop Security, “The DNA of the city for me has always been one of disruption, one of kind of questioning the status quo. You feel it when you walk around and you visit the historic sites and you’re on campuses like Georgia Tech and others.” Digital disruption is exactly what VPS.NET searches for when entering a new location, and our administrators have decided that Atlanta is the perfect spot.
Welcome to Seattle!
TechCrunch recently wrote that Seattle has recently experienced a dramatic change:
“The first part of the change has been the rise of a new breed of large Seattle-based tech companies – companies that are still smaller than the two local titans, Microsoft and Amazon, yet large enough to fill out the middle tier of the tech ecosystem.”
TechCrunch continues to explain that the middle tier includes “companies such as Expedia, Zillow, Tableau, Zulily, as well as very large acquisitions such as PopCap Games, Isilon, Big Fish Games or Bluekai.
“Along with older companies such as Adobe and Real, the home-grown tech industry in Seattle now has a sizable number of companies not only at the $100 billion valuation, but throughout the $10 billion, $1 billion, or $100 million valuation ranges.”
It’s apparent that the Seattle tech industry cannot be ignored, which is exactly why VPS.NET has chosen this location as our next data center location. The atmosphere promises to be a forward looking space for growth and success.
Welcome to Phoenix!
Forbes recently called Phoenix “the next big tech hub in America” explaining that “Uber, Yelp, and Shutterfly have recently opened offices in Phoenix, helping drive the number of tech jobs in the city up by 18.6% between 2010 and 2015.” This created little doubt that Phoenix is exactly where VPS.NET should be. The tech scene in Phoenix has been steadily growing, and this growth demands a great cloud provider.
VPS.NET maintains very high standards when concerning speed, power and accessibility. Our newest data center locations are no exception. Investors who typically look to Silicon Valley for new companies, but are now directing their gaze towards new promising cities for aspiring tech businesses, and VPS.NET wants to be there first.
