What determines the right location for a website, application, or business?
Most people simply pick the location closest to them, which is fair.
Some choose multiple locations and serve their content from the location closest to the individual visitor, which is also fair.
However, that tends to be more complex than most websites, applications, or businesses would need.
More often than not, one main location is sufficient, but that also varies depending on the application.
Stock trading software designed to trade US stocks needs to be in NYC proper; a game server requires minimal latency; and so on...
On the other hand, a static website isn't going to feel too different by adding an extra 50ms or so.
Latency isn't the only reason to consider location choices for hosting your website, application, or business, though...
Both reliability (of the data center and location specifically) and the individual laws of the countries your server is operating in are also huge factors.
That's why here at xTom we provide our infrastructure as a service solutions in many different locations, all of them being world-class data centers, and we top it off with a premium bandwidth blend to give you the best routes.
Whether you're just looking for the location closest to you or several to build a sophisticated, redundant, and extremely fast application, we're confident we're the right fit for you.
That said, let's take a detailed look at all of our data centers and locations available for hosting your website, application, or business with us (please note that images may not be available for every data center we operate out of).
First up:

What a trip we've had!
Unfortunately, we don't have any other locations (yet) to make this list even longer, so I'm afraid that's the end of this article.
That being said, if you’re looking to make use of these fantastic facilities, then consider signing up with V.PS for your virtual private server needs.
