This feature is currently available in Amsterdam, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles, and New York / New Jersey, and is designed to protect various assets such as business applications, database servers, game servers, and voice servers.

Vultr.com has announced a significant enhancement to its cloud hosting services in Tokyo and Sydney by doubling the bandwidth limits for these locations starting September 1st. This change applies to both new and existing instances, offering improved value without compromising the high-performance hardware that Vultr is renowned for. For instance, their starter compute plan, which costs $5 per month, now provides 400 GB of data transfer, up from the previous 200 GB.
