President-Anonymous Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 Softlayer, which as I understand it, is your upstream provider, offers data centres in both Amsterdam and Singapore. I personally, would be interested with a Amsterdam location. And I would imagine some of your Asian customers maybe interested with Singapore Quote
Brian Posted June 19, 2012 Report Posted June 19, 2012 We've already got shared services up in both Singapore and Amsterdam, and have since shortly after Softlayer launched them: http://www.hawkhost.com/network Unfortunately we can't provide VPS/reseller plans in those locations so it's limited to shared hosting only.

What is restricting you from offering this? Quote
Brian Posted June 20, 2012 Report Posted June 20, 2012 Available IP space is the primary reason, as APNIC is out of IPs and our provider (Softlayer) is making it more difficult (justifiably so) to obtain IPs in that region. As for Amsterdam it's simply a matter of demand, our VPS customer base is happy with the locations we offer and there isn't enough interest right now to bring AMS in to that arena. Quote

That is disappointing you feel that way. IP v6 should have many free IP though Quote
Cody R. Posted June 22, 2012 Report Posted June 22, 2012 That is disappointing you feel that way. IP v6 should have many free IP though IPv6 will indeed resolve this issue. The problem is adoption in the general market is slow moving (schools, governments, normal end-users). In the next few years we'll be seeing a shift form IPv4 to IPv6 as a standard however it's still a slow moving process. Until then we'll need to operate around the existing IPv4 environment which unfortunately is an abysmal mess. Quote
Rickeioren Posted August 3, 2012 Report Posted August 3, 2012 I am launching my company in Amstardam. It's a web development company that will be inaugrated by two owners and another branch will be set up in Singapore. This is because of good communication and transport networks. The cost of setting up their will be in budget. What say guys! Is it right setting up company in these two places that are opposite in directions. Quote
