VPS/VDS Finland hosting

A virtual server in Finland is suitable for any projects that require high performance, stability and protection. You can use VPS/VDS for development, testing, hosting, scraping, games, media, e-commerce and other purposes. Virtual hosting will allow you to work with a European audience, improve your image and increase your income.

What is the difference between VDS and VPS?

The differences are purely formal. In both cases, the client receives a virtual server with clearly defined characteristics. For example, 2 cores at 2.8 GHz, 2 GB of RAM, internal storage not 30 GB. The difference lies in the virtualization technology. 

VDS is traditionally characterized by hardware with a KVM hypervisor. In the case of VPS, virtualization is carried out at the OpenVZ (operating system) level. In practice, there is no significant difference between the servers. 

Advantages of VPS/VDS in Finland

The government is making significant efforts to protect data from leakage. Unauthorized persons are not allowed into the data centers. Data centers are certified in accordance with stringent Tier III+ requirements. This indicates a high degree of fault tolerance. 

The advanced energy system of Finland deserves special attention. There are bunkers with backup equipment throughout the country. Even in the event of an extreme situation, emergency equipment will be able to provide the country with electricity within 2-3 weeks. 

Virtual servers located in this country are characterized by stable operation. By renting Finnish VPS or VDS, you will note the following advantages:

• 24-hour operation of resources, without interruptions for maintenance work;

• ensuring user security;

• increased website loading speed. 

The topic of opening resources should be touched upon separately. If you're in the Nordic market, pages will open in just a few milliseconds. For users from remote parts of the world (Canada, Hong Kong, South American countries), large portals will fully load in 2-5 seconds. 

It is also worth noting the well-developed legal framework in Finland. There are particularly strict rules regarding the confidentiality of user data. For this reason, the country in question is one of the safest in terms of doing business on the Internet. 

About data centers in Finland

Digita deserves special mention. This is a data center located in the IT hub of the capital region. Inside there is state-of-the-art equipment. There is also the ability to connect to leading network service providers and telecom operators. The data center has an established connection with European countries, Asia, and the USA. Compliance with TIER III standards should also be highlighted. 

Digita has been certified according to specialized ISO standards. There is also a BREEAM environmental certificate (meaning “very good”). This data center is independent of local and international providers. Each rack provides up to 11 kW of electricity. Anyone can rent a room or cage inside for equipment. 

International players are also doing well on the Finnish market. For example, in December 2023, atNorth began planning its new data center in the small city of Kouvola. It is located approximately 140 km north of Helsinki. It is planned that the volume of investment in the project will reach 2 billion euros. Previously, atNorth had already opened 6 similar data centers in Finland and Scandinavian countries.
