For an audience in Austria, compare available Austrian cities with Frankfurt. For a store, API or development environment, user-network response time and the route to your database matter more than the country label. The second location is a network comparison candidate; check its own page for capacity and price.
We have not published a public measured latency result for this location. Ask support for a verified test IP, then run ping and traceroute or mtr from actual user connections at different times. ICMP alone is insufficient: also measure HTTP response time, packet loss and routes to application dependencies. A dedicated IP does not guarantee acceptance by every website or identical country classification in every geolocation database.
Your service is provisioned automatically the moment payment completes.
100% control of your server — any OS, any software, any configuration you want.
High-speed connectivity with a dedicated IPv4 and free IPv6 range on every service.
