Overview

What is Fasthosts?

Fasthosts, a Gloucester-based titan operating since 1999, is synonymous with robust infrastructure and Bare Metal expertise. Unlike resellers, they own and manage their data centers, giving them granular control over hardware configurations and network routing. This physical ownership allows them to offer dedicated servers and private cloud clusters at an unbeatable price-to-performance ratio, making them the default choice for system administrators requiring root access and custom virtualization environments.

Their value proposition centers on 'Infrastructure without Compromise'. They provide secure, ISO 27001 certified facilities connected to a massive 40Gbps backbone, ensuring low latency for UK audiences. Fasthosts bridges the gap between traditional dedicated servers and modern cloud flexibility, offering solutions that scale from single developer sandboxes to complex, load-balanced enterprise architectures.
