Hey everyone! We’ve been quietly working on some massive developments behind the scenes, and we’re thrilled to finally share what’s coming to RoyaleHosting in Q4 2024. While this year has already seen significant growth and improvements, we’re about to take things to a whole new level.
Expanding Operations with Enhanced Office Space
We’re expanding our operational footprint with a larger, more capable office facility. This expansion goes beyond additional square footage – it’s about elevating our operational capabilities to match our growing service offerings (and yes, we’ve upgraded the coffee machines too ☕).

One of the most exciting improvements is our enhanced inventory management system, complete with an expanded testing facility. This allows us to maintain our thorough hardware testing processes at a larger scale, documenting each step meticulously. Although our suppliers test rigorously, we always double-check to reduce shipping inflicted issues which may occur (and catch those sneaky “factory features” that sometimes slip through 😉).
We’re also upgrading our Network Operations Center (NOC) with advanced monitoring capabilities, ensuring 24/7 oversight of our infrastructure with unprecedented detail.
New Custom Data Center Room
The cornerstone of our Q4 developments is our custom-built data center room, designed from the ground up to meet our exact specifications and future requirements. Every cable run, every rack position, and every power distribution point has been carefully planned to maximize efficiency and reliability.

We’ve designed it with instant deployments in mind, adding substantial rack capacity that allows us to respond to customer needs faster than ever before. The entire network architecture has been reimagined, incorporating automation at every level to streamline operations and reduce human error.
Security was a top priority in our design process. We’ve implemented enhanced infrastructure security measures that give us complete control over the environment. This isn’t just about physical security – it’s about creating a controlled environment with us at the helm.
Looking to the future, we’ve built this space with scalability in mind. Our infrastructure has been designed to support over 10Tbps of connected capacity, ensuring we can rapidly scale up as demand grows. This forward-thinking approach allows us to expand our capabilities on short notice while maintaining the exceptional service quality you expect from us.
Perhaps most exciting is the new network layout we’ve implemented. It’s been specifically designed to support our new dedicated server manager, which will be an invaluable upgrade to how customers interact with their dedicated machines.
Upgraded Network Infrastructure
Our network infrastructure is undergoing its most significant upgrade yet, and we couldn’t be more excited about what this means for our customers.

We’ve worked closely with major providers to expand our connectivity options, ensuring that this massive capacity is backed by robust, reliable connections to key network providers worldwide with industry-leading latency figures.
Alongside these updates, we’ll be deploying an additional DDoS mitigation cluster for Application Shield, featuring enhanced filtering options. This new mitigation cluster will launch with 800 Gbps of filtering capacity, alongside our existing protection layers, with plans to scale up further in the future.
Impact on Service Delivery
All these infrastructure improvements aren’t just about having newer, shinier equipment – they’re about delivering tangible benefits to our customers. With our new office and testing facilities, we’ve significantly reduced hardware deployment times. When you need new services, we can respond faster than ever before, with equipment that’s been thoroughly tested and verified.
Our enhanced DDoS protection capabilities mean better security for your services. The combination of our new mitigation cluster and advanced filtering technologies provides more robust protection against evolving threats, while maintaining the performance you expect from your services.
The network upgrades we’re implementing open up new possibilities for high-performance applications. Whether you’re running resource-intensive workloads or need ultra-low latency connections, our expanded connectivity options and increased capacity ensure we can meet those demands.
Behind the scenes, our upgraded NOC and monitoring systems mean we can spot and respond to potential issues faster than ever. This proactive approach to service management helps ensure your services run smoothly, with minimal interruption.
Perhaps most importantly, these improvements pave the way for our new colocation and dedicated server managers. These new platforms will revolutionize how you interact with your infrastructure, providing full control and visibility over your services. Whether you’re managing colocated hardware or dedicated servers, these panels will make infrastructure management more intuitive and efficient for you and your employees.
Looking Forward
These Q4 developments represent more than just physical expansion – they’re a strategic investment in our future service capabilities. We’re building an infrastructure that not only meets current demands but is ready for the next generation of hosting requirements.
We’ll be sharing regular updates as we implement these improvements throughout Q4 and into the following year. Stay tuned for some exciting posts along the way.
Thank you for your continued trust in RoyaleHosting. We’re excited to bring these improvements online and demonstrate how they’ll enhance your experience with us.
