  • Fasthosts 2nd edition VPS now available in Worcester

    As a Fasthosts technology parter, I was lucky enough to tour the Fasthosts data centre last December. During the tour, I learned that they were planning on improving their VPS product this year with 1Gbps bandwidth and new storage VPS plans.

    Even with the knowledge of the improvements they were planning to make, I was excited when they announced a brand-new “2nd edition” VPS. After purchasing one, I discovered they are running on an entirely new platform, which is free of VMware.

    In this article, I’ll review Fasthosts’ new “Edition 2” VPS offering, much like I reviewed the 1st edition.

    I got to see “back stage” of the purpose-built facility where Fasthosts build and host the 10,000+ servers that power the company’s web and email hosting, CloudNX and virtual server platforms, and dedicated/bare metal servers.
