Our first USA zone is officially opened!

Today we are officially opening a new Clever Cloud zone located in New York city, our first in the USA. This comes in addition to our existing Paris, Roubaix, Warsaw, Montreal, Singapore and Sydney zones.

The launch of this new USA zone has been made available thanks to our supplier BSO.

BSO’s network comprises 240+ Tier3+ Points of Presence across 33 markets across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and South Africa.

The infrastructure is accessible through X POPS in North America, 10 DC in New Jersey and NYC area. The cloud Platform provides high availability with high-performance SLAs and is build for scale.
