OliveVPS operates a full-stack London VPS platform from Telehouse North, a Tier III certified facility in Docklands, London. Our London cloud servers run on the same modern hardware, the same KVM hypervisor, and the same control panel as every other OliveVPS region — but with one critical difference: your packets never leave United Kingdom unless they need to.

The United Kingdom latency advantage

For local users in London and the surrounding region, our region delivers sub-5ms application response times. A 100ms penalty on a distant data center costs ~7% in conversion rate. Local hosting recovers all of it.
