UK Infrastructure upgrade to 10 Gbit/s full duplex

[Staff 10456]

Hello!

We are very pleased to inform you that we are taking the necessary steps to completely renovate our infrastructure in the United Kingdom.

The current servers will be dismissed and replaced by six 10 Gbit/s servers with newer and much more powerful hardware. Each 10 Gbit/s server will be connected to a full duplex 10 Gbit/s dedicated line and port. Each new server replaces 2.5 current 1 Gbit/s servers in order to increase remarkably the available bandwidth per connected client.

At the end of the upgrade, UK will offer a theoretical peak of 60 Gbit/s (full duplex) instead of the current 15 Gbit/s, through adequately powerful servers.

According to our plan, three servers will be located in London and three in Manchester. The new servers will start operations around 19-22 February 2026. Current 1 Gbit/s servers will cease operations on the night between 28 February and 01 March (UTC). Any plan changes and/or delays will be communicated promptly.

Kind regards & datalove

Nice one 

I was getting better speeds from servers abroad than the UK ones (I'm in the UK)
This upgrade will hopefully sort it out!

Thanks!
