SITE DOSSIER · SEA1

Why Seattle?

Seattle, live since 2026, is in SEA1 at the Westin Building, the downtown carrier hotel where the transpacific cables arrive before they bother with the rest of the country. We joined SeattleIX with Arelion and Cogent, and the first test instance answered Tokyo at 88 ms — the shortest US–Japan path in the catalogue, found in a city better known for rain and coffee.

The site runs 0.36 Tbit/s of edge capacity at a 3 ms local median, with 17 ms to Los Angeles, 40 to Chicago and 118 to Sydney. Seattle is where the Pacific cables come ashore, which makes it the American site for the northern Pacific route and for the users who live in the country's north-west corner.

Questions about Seattle

The two answers people actually ask about this site, then the five we give everywhere.

This site

Seattle or Los Angeles for trans-Pacific traffic?
Seattle wins the northern route — 88 ms to Tokyo against Los Angeles's 92 — because the cables from Asia land there first. For Seoul the two sites quote the same 110 ms, and for Sydney the same 118. Los Angeles counters with the densest west-coast fabric and 43 ms to Mexico City; pick Seattle when Japan is the destination and the north-west the home market.
Who is Seattle for besides trans-Pacific traffic?
The north-west itself: Seattle is 17 ms from Los Angeles and 40 from Chicago, which makes it the closest rack we run to Vancouver, Portland and the corridor's growing cloud business. And for any workload whose traffic crosses the Pacific in the northern arc, 88 ms to Tokyo is the number that sells the site by itself.

Everywhere

Which region should I pick?
Measure, then read. Median RTT decides most cases: pick the site closest to the users you already have, then check the local law if that matters to your data. We do not charge a regional premium, so the decision is never financial.
Is the price the same in every location?
Yes. A Nano costs €1.90 per month in Frankfurt and in São Paulo. There is no regional pricing tier, no 'emerging market' discount and no 'premium location' markup to optimise around.
Can I move a server to another site later?
Take a snapshot, deploy the same image at the destination, restore, update the DNS. The console does not yet automate the migration end-to-end, but nothing about the price changes if you redeploy somewhere else.
Is DDoS protection included?
Standard volumetric filtering is always on and always free at every site. If you need application-layer scrubbing with custom rules, the Advanced tier costs €3.90 per month per server.
What IP addresses do I get?
Every server ships with one dedicated IPv4 and a routed /64 of IPv6, both announced from the site you chose. Additional IPv4s are €1.20 per month each, up to eight per server.

Payments from United States

Orders from United States are handled exactly like every other order: checkout in euros, payment in Bitcoin, Monero or any of twenty-four assets, and the server provisions on the first network confirmation. No card, no bank, no name that has to match one.

Two decisions, then a network

Pick a size, pick a site, pay in crypto. Moving later is one snapshot and a redeploy away.
