AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS--(Marketwired - Jan 28, 2014) - Following months of testing, Webzilla, the fastest growing enterprise hosting company in the world, announces a milestone. Webzilla has proudly included AMS-IX in its list of Points of Presence (POPs) for many years and now is pleased to announce the completion of 100GE connection across its internal network.

The age of 100 Gigabit Ethernet is now.

Webzilla, and its sister company, IP Transit, have joined the exclusive club of only 8 networks in the AMS-IX to boast a 100GE connection to the backbone. Webzilla has transitioned itself to stand among the ranks of exclusive peers such as Netflix, Google, and Akamai, quietly taking its rightful place among the giants.

AMS-IX is currently the second biggest Internet Exchange in the world. Two years ago, tests began with 100GE, on the back of a migration from a pure Layer 2 network to VPLS/MPLS. This is as resilient as it gets in the enterprise.

Today, 100GE can be called a proven technology, in part pioneered by Brocade after the acquisition of Foundry Networks, the exact technology implemented in AMS-IX.

Konstantin Bezruchenko, CTO of Webzilla, commented for the occasion: "This is undoubtedly a turning point for Webzilla...clearly showcasing the ascent of the company to the top level of the hosting industry. Configuring 100GE connection in AMS-IX was a welcomed challenge and going live was the epitome of success. We will continue to move forward, innovating and always on the cutting edge of hosting technology."

The takeaway from this announcement, if the above mentioned acronyms make little sense, is this: Webzilla, as fast and as secure as it gets, always. This is a seal of a world class technological status.
