Why Toronto

Workloads that must not touch United States soil have a small number of sensible homes in North America, and Toronto is the largest. The site runs in a partner facility with standard compute, next to the networks that make up most of Canadian routing.

How Toronto is connected

TorIX, housed at 151 Front Street West, is the country's busiest exchange; we peer there and at Equinix Toronto. Round trips to New York, Chicago and Ashburn sit in the low tens of milliseconds, so the site serves the US northeast well while keeping data in Canada. Canadian carriers concentrate here, which keeps domestic paths short.

What YYZ1 is good at

  • 01Canadian data residency requirements
  • 02North American edge without US jurisdiction
  • 03Latency-sensitive services for eastern Canada
Hosting under Canada lawAccess requires an order obtained under Canadian procedure, and PIPEDA sets the commercial baseline for handling personal data. Canada is no privacy haven given its long-standing intelligence-sharing arrangements, but its process is separate from, and slower than, a domestic US subpoena.

FAQ

Questions about Toronto

Yes, and in eight other assets across dozens of networks, settled through OxaPay. Card payment is not offered anywhere, which is what keeps signup down to an email address.

GPU availability is listed in the specification block at the top of this page. Where YYZ1 carries them, the FUSION family passes an entire physical card through over PCIe Gen5 rather than slicing it, so the device you see is the device you have.

No. Registration in every location, Toronto included, is an email address and a password. We do not ask for identity documents, a phone number or a card anywhere in our footprint.

It depends what you are serving. YYZ1 peers at TorIX, Equinix TR, which sets how directly it reaches the networks your users sit on. The latency table above is measured, not modelled: read the row for the hub closest to your audience and decide from that rather than from the map.

The YYZ1 point of presence peers at TorIX, Equinix TR and carries 3.4 Tbps of aggregate transit. Every node uplinks at 2 x 10 Gbps, filtered inline by 3 Tbps of scrubbing capacity.

Prices in Toronto are indexed at 105% of the base list, which reflects local transit and power cost. The annual cycle takes thirty percent off that, and ordering several servers on one invoice takes a further three to ten percent. The table above shows both cycles.
