Transit Prices Reduced by 20%

Starting 1st October 2011 OrionVM will be lowering our transit prices by 20% to $0.80 per GB.

Earlier this month we transitioned our Cloud Platform (CloudDC) into the new Equinix SY3 data centre in Sydney. SY3 is one of the most advanced, state-of-the-art data centres on offer in the Asia-Pacific region, offering us far better connectivity and peering options than our previous facility. OrionVM has increased the number of quality upstream providers and committed capacity into our platform, and we would like to pass on this benefit to our customers.

 

We understand that one of the biggest barriers to adoption of Cloud Computing in Australia is the price of ingress and egress of your data, hence we are offering a price reduction of 20% on all transit costs.

We are doing all we can to reduce these prices, and will continue to introduce more peering arrangements going forward. If you are a heavy bandwidth user, please feel free to contact us, as we are able to work with our upstream providers to achieve better rates going forward.

I would like to thank everyone for their support over the past few months. We are working on some great features within the OrionVM offices, and I look forward to releasing them to you.

Many Thanks,

Sheng Yeo
