Ashburn VPS in Equinix DC6, plus Dedicated Servers
Ashburn — Northern Virginia, USA — is the single largest datacenter market in the world. It is the de-facto US East peering hub, with Equinix Ashburn's IX representing the densest concentration of network presence on the planet outside Frankfurt. Our Ashburn VPS node runs in Equinix DC6 on the Equinix Ashburn campus, and dedicated servers are available in the United States.
Ashburn is our location for US-targeted workloads. Routing from US networks to Ashburn currently varies by provider, so we publish no US latency figures; measure from your own network with our looking glass before you deploy. It's also the closest North American location to Europe, with round-trip times of about 97 ms to Frankfurt and 103 ms to Amsterdam, making it the natural pair for any transatlantic deployment.

04Questions
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about Ashburn deployments.
What datacenter is used in Ashburn?
Our Ashburn VPS node runs in Equinix DC6, on the Equinix Ashburn campus — the densest carrier-neutral colocation cluster in the world.
Should I choose Ashburn or Frankfurt for transatlantic audiences?
Run both. For a US-majority audience, Ashburn is the right primary; for an EU-majority audience, Frankfurt or Amsterdam wins. A transatlantic round trip of about 97 ms to Frankfurt and 103 ms to Amsterdam means a single-region deployment will always disappoint half your audience. Multi-region across Ashburn + an EU hub is the standard transatlantic pattern.
Is Ashburn HIPAA-eligible?
No. X ZONE IT SRL holds no HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS or similar certification, so do not rely on facility certifications through us for HIPAA-regulated or other compliance-bound workloads.
