Rapid.Space Cloud Announces New Japan Zone

The European company Rapid.Space has launched its first point of presence in Japan in partnership with Nexedi KK. The company has a presence in over 200 points all around the world.

This new zone will provide its clients in Japan the advantages of Rapid.Space hyper open architecture including open source software, open hardware and transparent, open services.

Rapid.Space will be offering its flagship virtual machines "VPS" (195€/month for 256 GB RAM and 20 cores) and "VPSBrute" (495€/month for 1 TB RAM and 64 cores), as well as web acceleration via its global CDN (content delivery network) and SDN (software-defined networking) through this Japan zone. These offerings will help its Japanese clients meet their high computational requirements.

"We are very proud to be growing our global infrastructure with the presence of Rapid.Space cloud in Japan. It is a country with one of the most innovative and technologically advanced economies — but also one with significantly higher cloud infrastructure costs. Here, we hope to carve out our niche with our Rapid.Space high-performance, hyper open virtual machines and access to our global CDN and SDN while also adding more points of presence throughout Japan," said Jean-Paul Smets, CEO of Rapid.Space.
