Vienna servers in the datacenter

Vienna is the natural hub for Central and Southeastern European traffic. The Vienna Internet Exchange (VIX), operated out of the University of Vienna, is the dominant Austrian peering point and a major aggregation hub for traffic to and from Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, and the Balkans. Our Vienna deployment sits in Interxion Vienna (now part of Digital Realty), one of the most peering-dense buildings in the city.

Vienna is the right choice when you serve audiences in DACH-South (southern Germany, Austria, Switzerland) plus Hungary, Slovakia, and the Western Balkans. Latency to Frankfurt stays under 12 ms, so Vienna also works as a low-cost mirror for Frankfurt-primary deployments.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Vienna deployments.

What datacenter is used in Vienna?+

Vienna servers run in Interxion Vienna, with direct cross-connect to VIX. The Vienna facility is one of the most carrier-dense colocation buildings in Europe.

Is Vienna a better choice than Frankfurt for Eastern Europe?+

For audiences in Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, and parts of Bosnia/Serbia, Vienna typically beats Frankfurt by 5-15 ms. For traffic that's split between Western and Eastern Europe, Frankfurt usually still wins because of DE-CIX's pan-European peering.

What does VIX peer with?+

VIX peers with all major Austrian ISPs (A1, Magenta, Drei) and a long tail of regional carriers across Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, and the Balkans. It also has cross-IX connectivity to DE-CIX, which means Frankfurt-bound traffic gets a clean path.
