Why Oslo

Norway buys distance from the EU legal machinery without leaving European latency budgets. OSL1 stays a modest edge footprint; what it sells is where it sits, legally and geographically, not how much hardware fits inside.

How Oslo is connected

NIX has been the Norwegian exchange since the university network era and still aggregates most domestic peers; FIXO adds a second, more commercial fabric. We are on both. Fibre from Oslo reaches Stockholm and Copenhagen in single-digit to low double-digit milliseconds, and Norway now has its own transatlantic landing on the south coast rather than depending solely on Danish and Swedish transit.

What OSL1 is good at

  • 01Nordic user-facing services
  • 02Jurisdictional separation from EU sites
  • 03Cold storage and backup targets
Hosting under Norway lawGDPR still applies in full, implemented here as EEA law, but the EU's criminal-justice instruments do not reach Norwegian providers directly. Foreign requests travel through mutual legal assistance instead. That is a procedural delay and a paper trail, not immunity.
