FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which data centre is the Portugal location?
Covilha Data Center at Transversal Rua da Grila 4, Covilha, Portugal. It is Tier III certified and holds ISO-IEC 20000-1:2018, with a 99.982% facility uptime SLA
What can I order in Covilha?
Cloud servers, Kubernetes clusters, Windows Server with RDS licences, snapshots and a backup included in every plan, and any operating system including one booted from your own ISO. Dedicated hardware is racked in Prague only, so a bare-metal order goes there
Are dedicated servers available in Portugal?
No. Covilha runs cloud servers; dedicated servers are in Prague. If you need bare metal and Iberian presence at the same time, the usual answer is a dedicated server in Prague with a cloud server in Covilha for the front end or for backups
Why choose Covilha over Prague?
Two reasons. It serves Iberian and Atlantic traffic better than Central Europe does, and it gives you a second site in a different country on a different power grid - which is what makes a backup or a failover target meaningful rather than decorative
Which IP ranges are announced from Covilha?
217.28.140.0/24 and 2a0d:6241::/32, under AS204057. They are published in our RFC 8805 geofeed, which is what geolocation databases read, so a service that misplaces your server can be pointed at it
