Network Infrastructure

Redundant routing, SwissIX peering, and workload-aware connectivity

The network layer connects hosted workloads to users, upstream carriers, private server tiers, and external services. Routing quality, carrier diversity, local peering, transfer allocation, and port capacity all affect application performance and resilience.

Core Network

Redundant routing architecture

Redundant core systems and automatic failover reduce dependence on a single routing path or network device.

Infrastructure relationship

Core redundancy supports VPS nodes, dedicated servers, colocation, VPN gateways, and streaming platforms through shared network-resilience controls.

Transit

Multiple Tier-1 upstreams

Multiple upstream relationships provide alternative external paths and help maintain international reach during congestion or provider events.

Why carrier diversity matters

Traffic can use alternative routes when a carrier or external path is degraded, improving resilience compared with a single-provider design.

Peering

Direct SwissIX connectivity

SwissIX peering in Zurich can reduce unnecessary transit hops and improve routing efficiency for Swiss and European traffic.

Peering impact

Local traffic exchange can improve route efficiency, reduce dependency on distant transit paths, and add another connectivity relationship.

Private Network

Isolated server interconnects

Private VLAN and backend network designs can connect application, database, storage, and management tiers without exposing every service publicly.

Typical private-network workloads

Application-to-database traffic, replication, caching, management interfaces, cluster communication, and internal APIs can use isolated network paths.

Capacity

Plan-specific ports and transfer

VPS and dedicated configurations include defined transfer allowances and port capacities suited to different workload profiles.

Capacity planning

Evaluate average transfer, traffic peaks, concurrency, application protocol, file sizes, and geographic audiences before selecting a plan.

Monitoring

Continuous network observation

Network health and performance monitoring supports incident detection, routing review, and operational response.

Customer monitoring remains important

Infrastructure monitoring does not replace application monitoring, endpoint checks, log review, or customer-defined service alerts.

Security Infrastructure

Layered physical, network, access, and operational controls

Secure hosting requires more than one control. SwissHosting combines facility security, remote-management controls, DDoS mitigation, network isolation, encryption options, authentication, and customer-side system administration to create multiple protective layers.

01

Physical facility controls

Camera coverage, access logging, controlled entry points, verified personnel access, and on-site security protect physical infrastructure.

02

DDoS detection and mitigation

Multi-vector filtering and monitoring help identify and respond to volumetric, protocol, and application-layer attack patterns.

03

Remote hardware management

IPMI and KVM provide hardware-level access for power control, console access, installation, and recovery without relying on the guest operating system.

04

Private network segmentation

Internal VLANs can separate public services from databases, management interfaces, storage nodes, and backend systems.

05

Encrypted connectivity

No-log VPN services and customer-configured encryption can protect network sessions, administrative access, and sensitive application paths.

06

Customer security responsibility

Customers remain responsible for operating-system updates, firewall rules, account security, backups, applications, credentials, and lawful use unless management is included in writing.

Storage & Virtualization

Match storage media and virtualization architecture to application behavior

Storage capacity alone does not determine performance. Media type, latency, I/O behavior, redundancy, encryption, controller design, rebuild requirements, and virtualization overhead should be evaluated together.

SSD

General production storage

Suitable for websites, business applications, control panels, APIs, virtual servers, and general database workloads.

Relationship: Balanced latency, capacity, and monthly price.
NVMe

Higher-throughput storage

Designed for database activity, storage-intensive applications, frequent disk operations, and performance-sensitive production services.

Relationship: Lower latency and higher potential I/O throughput.
HDD

High-capacity storage

Appropriate for archives, backup repositories, retained files, synchronization, and capacity-first workloads.

Relationship: Greater storage capacity where peak I/O is less important.
Virtualization

Isolated virtual environments

Enterprise virtualization provides VM isolation, flexible allocation, lifecycle controls, and rapid provisioning across shared physical hosts.

Relationship: Virtual infrastructure balances flexibility and cost; dedicated hardware prioritizes exclusive resources.
Technology availability varies by service.

Exact storage media, RAID options, encryption, hypervisor, component brands, chassis, operating-system images, driver compatibility, network ports, and upgrade capacity depend on the selected plan and current inventory. Confirm specialized requirements before ordering.

Power & Sustainability

Resilient facility power with efficiency-focused operations

Data-center availability begins before the server. Utility feeds, UPS systems, transfer controls, generators, rack power, cooling, monitoring, and capacity planning operate together as one facility system.

01Utility SourcesIndependent facility power inputs where available
02UPS ProtectionImmediate conditioned power during transfer events
03Automatic TransferCoordinated switching between available power sources
04Generator SupportExtended operation during sustained utility outages
05Dual Rack RailsRedundant distribution paths to supported equipment

Energy-efficient hardware

Right-sized processors, storage, memory, and power profiles help reduce unnecessary consumption while maintaining workload capacity.

Cooling and airflow planning

Facility airflow and cooling optimization support stable equipment operation and more efficient power usage.

Renewable-energy use

Renewable power sources are prioritized where available as part of the broader Swiss infrastructure and efficiency approach.

Capacity planning

Matching infrastructure to realistic utilization helps avoid unnecessary hardware, power, and cooling overhead.
