IP connectivity with international connection
Internet bandwidth
with
Zero downtime &
maximum performance
High-performance bandwidth and optimum availability thanks to redundant systems.
99.99% Availability
With geo-redundancy of our national and international connections.
Scalable bandwidth
We guarantee flexible Internet bandwidths from 10 Mbps to a powerful 100 gigabits.
International connections
With redundant connections from Vienna to Frankfurt and Vienna to Paris.
We guarantee high availability through internationally redundant connections from a single source
In the modern age, availability is crucial to the success or failure of companies. According to studies in the United States, 90% of companies do not recover economically if they do not have their "usual" access to the Internet for more than two days.
With redundant connections from Vienna to Frankfurt and Vienna to Paris ensures that customers in Austria do not have to fear any service disruptions even in the event of a link failure. upstreamNet guarantees full redundancy for the IP bandwidth consumed by customers.
The path to a data center can seem complex, especially if your own requirements are not clearly defined. We can provide you with professional and non-binding advice.

Future-proof technologies
In a networked world, it is crucial to stay technologically up to date. With upstreamNet, you benefit from a global network based on secure protocols and stable technologies.
BGP protocol (Border Gateway Protocol)
This protocol ensures that data packets on the Internet take the optimal route to reach their destination quickly and reliably. At upstreamNet, it is used to route dynamically and efficiently between networks so that your data traffic remains stable and secure at all times.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)
TCP/IP is the basis for all Internet traffic. It ensures that data is transmitted correctly and arrives safely at its destination by standardizing communication between networks. With upstreamNet, TCP/IP ensures smooth and reliable data transmission in your network.
AS8218 and AS6461
These autonomous systems (AS) form the core of upstreamNet's global connectivity. AS8218 provides high-availability connectivity for enterprises, while AS6461 provides international reach and access to worldwide networks.

Transparent cost control
Keep full control of your network costs - with upstreamNet you only pay for what you actually use.
- 95% model: This billing model means that only 95% of the actual bandwidth consumption is charged, so that short-term peaks are not included in your costs.
- Average consumption: Alternatively, you can opt for billing based on average consumption, which offers you maximum flexibility.
- MRTG (Multi Router Traffic Grapher): MRTG enables real-time monitoring of your bandwidth consumption. It visualizes the traffic and shows precise statistics so that you always have an overview of your network utilization. This allows you to plan and optimize your resources efficiently.
With upstreamNet you are safe
Our Network Operation Center (NOC) is active 365 days a year.
Whether routine or emergency - we make sure that your Network without failures running.
With the help of Arbor TMS Mitigation, an advanced technology to defend against DDoS attacks, we proactively protect your network. This means that harmful traffic is detected and blocked before it reaches your system.
Fast responses and our proactive service ensure that disruptions are avoided. We offer you 99.99% availability thanks to stable technology and redundant connections. Your security and availability is our top priority.

Frequently asked questions & answers
With colocation, customers have physical control over their servers and place them in a data center, while cloud hosting customers use virtual resources.
upstreamNet offers you the flexibility of a small team with high availability and security in the AS8218 and AS6461 network. If required, we can support you with IT services and the expertise of our partners. Our Vienna data centers are geo-redundantly connected to the Internet nodes (VIX1, VIX2 and VIX3) to ensure maximum security and availability. Direct dark fiber connections between RDC and ODC21 also enable our customers to operate their equipment in a location-redundant manner for clustering or backups via fiber optics. We are an Austrian company and can make quick decisions in an international environment.
With many years of experience, compliance with the highest security standards and flexible solutions, upstreamNet is a reliable partner for first-class colocation and the best IP connectivity. In our data centers - as of 2024/2025 - there are no ongoing costs for patching to and from provider rooms.
upstreamNet offers colocation, IP connectivity as well as scalable managed services and consulting services.
Our Network Operations Center (NOC) is available around the clock and communicates directly with our backbone engineers in AS8218 & AS6461. Our monitoring service for IP runs 24×7, as does the hands-on service on site at the Raiffeisen Datacenter (RDC). The On Demand Center (ODC21) is staffed around the clock and guarantees access to the system rooms.
Redundant Juniper routers at the data center locations and Internet nodes are directly connected to each other via geo-redundant lines (backbone). In addition to the peerings at VIX, our AS8218 is connected to the international networks of other providers via different provider and route lines in Paris and Frankfurt. The availability of free gigabit capacities ensures a stable connection and sufficient bandwidth capacity even if line providers fail.
Data security and data protection are guaranteed by bank-certified security protocols and compliance with the GDPR.
upstreamNet offers individual SLAs with guaranteed availability and fast response times for support requests.
The costs depend on the specific customer requirements and are calculated individually.
The data center is bank-certified, which guarantees compliance with the highest security and quality standards.
Eco-friendly practices and energy-efficient systems help minimize the data center's environmental footprint.
Yes, there are minimum contract terms that vary depending on the service.
The data center is monitored around the clock by the Network Operations Center (NOC) in order to identify and rectify potential problems immediately.
MRTG (Multi Router Traffic Grapher) is a tool for real-time monitoring of bandwidth consumption. It creates detailed graphs that visualize the traffic history and utilization of a network. This enables companies to identify bottlenecks at an early stage and plan their network usage efficiently.
