THE NETWORK
We took great care in researching and selecting only the highest quality bandwidth providers for our network to ensure we provide low latency and high availability to all locations both domestically and abroad.
operates one of the world's largest Tier 1 IP networks - connecting over 25% of the world's Internet traffic. The Sprint IP backbone has more Autonomous System network connections than any other, with high-speed links that operate up to OC-192 / STM-64 - the fastest speeds available over IP today.
Sprint was recently ranked the #4 IP transit provider in North America, #2 in Europe, and #1 in Asia by Renesys Corp, an independent research firm. Sprint's IP network is second highest ranked network in CAIDA's ranking of Autonomous Systems in the entire world.
Savvis operates a global tier-1 network that spans 105 cities in 47 countries, encompassing the U.S., Canada, Latin America, Europe, The Middle East, Asia and the Pacific Rim.
THE DATA CENTERAll of Http Easyhost's servers are housed in private datacenter space in the newly renovated 427 LaSalle data center facility located adjacent to the Chicago Board of Trade in downtown Chicago.

- 3 2 MegaWatt (MW) Electrical Generators
- 4 500 KVA UPS systems
- Automatic logic monitoring of all critical equipment
Chicago is one of the most connected cities in the world, and it's central location makes it the optimum location for serving Internet content. Chicago serves as one of North America's largest Internet hubs and is home to every major network provider. Most of the fiber optics that connect the East and West coasts of the United States run through Chicago and this yields low latency to both coasts as well as to Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.
Our network structure is built around what we do: hosting secure servers with operations divided between front- and back-end traffic. Compare this to a typical hosting network structure not built to discriminate between private and public activity. A generic, one-size-fits-all approach to hosting servers sacrifices efficiency and security by not separating network traffic by purpose.
