VoxCAST’s Singapore POP up and humming

VoxCAST’s Singapore POP up and humming

A few weeks ago and after a lot of hard work by Voxel’s elite admins and network commandos, we finally brought VoxCAST’s Singapore POP online, nestled in the Equinix facility in Ayer Rajah a few minutes’ drive from our Singapore offices. With this, web browsers is AsiaPac will see significant improvements in load times for VoxCAST-hosted sites.

VoxCAST servers in Singapore

Voxel is now well-established in Singapore: our offices at Clarke Quay are starting to overflow with developers and systems engineers; our VoxCAST servers are humming; and our SilverLining cluster is up and running with hundreds of cores. (Want some compute power in Singapore? Let us know!) Adam, Voxel’s lead network commando, will have some more details of our Singapore deployment and other network happenings in an upcoming post.

And yes, we’re still in love with chicken rice.
