Network

Our own ASN. Our own backbone.

Hostander operates a private European network. We hold our own ASN and IP space, connect our two POPs with private wavelength capacity, and peer directly at the major European exchanges. No reseller relationships in the path between you and the internet.

ASN
Hostander AS

RIPE-registered, operated in-house, not leased from an upstream.

IP space
IPv4 + IPv6

Our own PI allocations, announced from both POPs for redundancy.

Backbone
Tallinn ↔ Amsterdam

Private wavelength capacity between our two POPs, no public internet in the middle.

Uplink
10 Gbps

Per server uplink standard. Higher capacity available on request.

POPs

Two cities, one fabric.

A symmetric two-POP design: low-latency for the Nordics and Baltics out of Tallinn, low-latency for Western Europe out of Amsterdam, both fully meshed.

Nordic and Baltic POP
Tallinn, Estonia
  • Tier III facility in Tallinn metro
  • Multiple carrier entries, dual power feeds
  • Direct path to Helsinki, Stockholm, Riga, Vilnius
Western European POP
Amsterdam, Netherlands
  • Tier III facility on the AMS-IX fabric
  • Dense peering with European and global networks
  • Direct path to Frankfurt, Paris, London, Brussels
Transit & peering

Carrier-diverse, peered at the source.

  • Multiple Tier 1 transit providers in each POP
  • Carrier-diverse fiber entries at every facility
  • Direct peering at major European IXPs (AMS-IX, NL-ix, EPIX/EVIX class exchanges)
  • Anycast-friendly architecture for customers running global services
Reliability

Built so you don't notice when something fails.

Fully redundant fabric

Dual leaf-and-spine in each POP. Any single device or fiber cut is invisible to customer traffic.

Active-active routing

Both POPs announce and accept your prefixes. Failover between Tallinn and Amsterdam is automatic at the BGP layer.

DDoS mitigation upstream

Volumetric scrubbing at our transit edges. Application-layer mitigation available as a managed service.
