Network & Connectivity
ESPINDA co-operates with FastHosts, the largest provider of web hosting on the Microsoft platform in Europe. Each day they handle more than three million e-mails and host more than 500,000 virtual servers on thousands of Microsoft and Linux web servers.
It all happens at our advanced data centre in the heart of the UK in Gloucester, where our team of experienced engineers monitor your service 24-7 to ensure the highest levels of performance.

More bandwidth
We have more bandwidth than our competitors, a massive 400 Mb/s of Internet connectivity. This is provided by two companies, Telewest and Cable & Wireless, reducing risk to you, in the unlikely event that either should experience network problems. And the two lines are routed separately into the building for extra reliability. What’s more, our bandwidth can burst up to more than 1GB/s instantly at the flick of a switch, ensuring we can grow with customer needs.

Quality server hardware
We only use rack-optimised Dell servers. By standardising our technologies on these high-quality machines, we can raise our levels of expertise, keep a ready inventory of spares and be able to respond to faults quickly. Our excellent relationship with Dell also ensures keep up with the latest technologies too.

Comprehensive security
We use a variety of firewall and security devices for our network, following a similar security model to the one used by US military. Similar standards are applied to our physical premises, with UPS, advanced fire-supression equipment, CCTV, access systems and security guards in operation. Find out more about our data center.
