After many weeks of negotiations and preparations, we finally met on Tuesday 20. September 2023, they have connected to one of the largest Internet Exchange Point (IXP) in Northern Europe – Netnod.

We added another point to our global infrastructure in September in Dublin, Ireland and on Friday 15. In September 2023, the first user requests from our customers passed through it. For now, it handles traffic from Ireland and Iceland. Gradually, however, we will start to allow other traffic through this location where it makes sense for customers. The aim is to achieve the best possible response.

After a few weeks of planning and testing, yesterday 31. On August 2023, they successfully implemented peering to one of the most important Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) on the planet – LINX (London Internet Exchange).

WEDOS Global is gradually growing. Two important points were added in January. We are doing our best to make the network truly global as soon as possible. We just want to have our hardware with enough connectivity everywhere. In today’s article we have a short summary of how we are doing.

At the beginning of the year, we significantly strengthened the parameters of the NoLimit service, especially in terms of computing power. This was especially appreciated by customers using content management systems with larger databases and customers whose websites are visited by a large number of visitors on a spur-of-the-moment basis. And it shows. The number of service cancellations due to “dissatisfaction with performance/speed” dropped almost 4 times. But it’s not just about increasing the parameters. Behind it are changes and advances that most customers are unaware of.

There’s a lot going on here. We are building our decentralised WEDOS Global network, preparing to launch the first WEDOS Global Protection service on it, and the development of oil cooling is still going ahead, but these are not all big projects. Last year, we migrated our service data to the new 3PAR StoreServ Storage 8450, which was very challenging and we still ran into the occasional problem a few months later. In addition to significant simplification, increased stability and speed, this new solution also opens the way for us to take many services further.

When the strongest attacks in the history of the Czech Internet came at us in April 2021, which managed to clog all 3 of our 100 Gbps routes for a short time, we understood that the rules were changing. Despite upgrading the hardware of our protections, strengthening our infrastructure and implementing new processes, it was only a matter of time before short attacks of this magnitude became longer or even permanent attacks.

Last month we informed you about the successful migration of NoLimit web hosts from old servers to new ones. It was a very important step for us to move forward. As you know, we like a unified solution that we can scale quickly, efficiently and also cheaply.

We have done a number of experiments with oil cooling servers. Some took literally a few minutes and other times the whole project took several years to collect enough data for long-term operation. As a result of a series of experiments, our second datacenter will house all of the planned 10,800 physical servers cooled in oil baths using a giant cooling circuit. It includes a project to prove (proof of concept) that waste heat from oil cooling can be used to heat remote buildings. Of course, we don’t stop there, we still have the HUPS project 😉

Our CML (Central Monitoring Logs) system continuously collects data from all servers and other devices on our network and evaluates it in real time. This is 600 – 700 GB of data per day. It serves primarily for the purpose of tracking down errors and problems. However, we also use them for our protection, for example. But what if we made them into an infographic?
