USA Dedicated Servers in Ashburn, Virginia

Our USA dedicated servers are located in Ashburn, Virginia, in the Northern Virginia metro. Ashburn is the largest and densest datacenter market in the world and one of the primary interconnection points for the US East Coast, which is why it is the location we sell from rather than a coast-to-coast list of sites.

Because Ashburn is where the American internet interconnects. Northern Virginia concentrates more datacenter capacity and more network interconnection than any other market on the planet, so a server there sits close to the networks your US users actually arrive on. For a single US footprint serving a national audience, the East Coast interconnection point is the sensible default rather than a location picked for the map.

Yes, and that is the main reason this location exists. NexonHost S.R.L. is a Romanian company, so a European customer gets a US server on the same EU contract, the same EU invoice and the same support desk as their European servers. You do not need a US entity, a US card or a second vendor relationship to put hardware in Virginia.

It changes how you have to handle it. The United States is outside the EU and EEA, so data on a US server sits under US jurisdiction and GDPR treats sending personal data there as an international transfer, with the paperwork and safeguards that implies. This is a routing and compliance input, not a verdict: plenty of workloads — static assets, caches, application front ends, anything without personal data — are unaffected. If a workload does involve EU personal data, the simplest answer is usually to keep that part in our EU cluster.

Decide by where your users are and where your data has to live, and accept that those two answers may point in different directions. If most of your traffic is North American, Ashburn removes a transatlantic round trip that no amount of tuning will win back. If you hold EU personal data, that data is better off in the EU cluster. Teams with both often run both — a US front end in Ashburn and the regulated data in Germany or Ireland.

Because NexonHost is a European provider and bills in euro everywhere, including for servers in Ashburn. There is no separate USD price list and no US price premium: a US dedicated server costs €129 to €1519 per month, the same as the identical configuration in any of our European locations. Your bank handles the conversion if you pay from a dollar account.

Yes. Locations are not separate products or separate contracts — a US server and an EU server appear in the same client area, on the same invoice, and are supported by the same engineers. That is the practical argument for buying both from one European vendor rather than stitching together a US provider and an EU provider.

The Intel Xeon configurations are provisioned automatically within minutes; the AMD EPYC configurations are built to order with an estimated two-week delivery. Delivery times are the same as our other locations because the configurations are the same — if you need an American box running today, start with a Xeon tier.

Yes. Network-level DDoS protection is included with US dedicated servers, and the paid add-on scales up to 1Tbps / 100Mpps L4 protection from €250 per month. American-facing infrastructure tends to attract more unsolicited attention than a quiet EU back end, so it is worth sizing this at deployment rather than during an incident.

Yes — and migration between our locations is free, including across the Atlantic. Before you move everything, check what actually needs to be in the US: the answer is often the front end and the assets, not the database. If the workload touches EU personal data, moving it to the US turns a domestic setup into an international transfer, which is usually a worse trade than simply splitting the deployment.
