Hello,
We are pleased to officially announce that we've sold more than 40000 servers. Since we're talking numbers Ovh now manages 1,000,000 domain names (as registrar), hosts over 1,500,000 websites and leases 40,000 servers. In all, we have approximately 6,000 servers within the host (so it's 46000 servers in all, domestic + arrivals). Our debit network 110Gbps and has a capacity of 320Gbps. Just over 150 staff work all day (and night) for our customers. Ovh is present in France (and Belgium), Germany, Poland, England,Spain and Italy. After 1 subsidiary every 6 months, it is time to accelerate the pace a bit. We are currently preparing 4 new
subsidiaries, by the end of the year: Ireland, Portugal, Netherlands and the Czech Republic. Can we do it or not?
Let us return to our 40017 ... 40019 servers. We are hosting at 2 datacentres that we bought and built. The 1st datacentre is
Paris 19, capacity 12,000 servers. It was built in 2004 and full in 2 years. The 2nd datacentre, Roubaix 1, has a capacity of 36,000
servers. It was built in 2005/2006 and full 2 years as well. Indeed, the datacentre Roubaix 1 is "2 racks short of full". It will be completely filled in one day, today!
Some remember a story filmed and broadcast on TV on "France 3" in 2005. It shows the datacentre Paris 19 and the construction of
Roubaix 1. It's worth the trip! http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=Pcn0YZMTl5s
How routing is done in Roubaix 1?

When the film on the Roubaix 2? Yes! When? Roubaix has a capacity of 100,000 servers ... just fill in! More than innovate!more than offer services that nobody proposes! More than servers offer even cheaper! More to develop new subsidiaries! Become No. 1 for hosting in Europe!
You accompany us?
I wanted to congratulate all our teams ... Supply, prod, tech in datacentres, the customer support phone and email, incident support,
dev, admin and those responsible for the ideas, imagination and "right to the end" in the dedication that they are showing every day and every night. The Ovh project and its success is teamwork. Every team-mate has a vital importance in the chain of satisfaction to
the customer. One can say that there is 9 years of Ovh, not bad. And fortunately there is still work to be done! A glass of hampagne?

Octave
