Greetings! Have you seen the news? ColoCrossing has integrated IPv6 support into all of their services. If you are into all things internet related, this could excite you. Their network is now ready for the future.
• Future ready: Your servers can grow with more devices and expansion.
• Performance improvement: Websites and services can load faster.
• Easier scaling: New servers and services are easier to add without addresses limiting them.
If you host websites or services, you will see how IPv6 can make life easier. Personally, I appreciate seeing a provider make it a priority. Meaning, it’s a good sign they want to keep the network they control up to date for the benefit of their customer base.
Why is IPv6 important
Sure, you could say "Why do I care about IPv6?" Well the IPv4 Address space is almost full, or completely exhausted, and without IPv6 you will not be able to assign internet addresses to all of your devices. So with IPv6, ColoCrossing guarantees that every one of their customers will never run out of addresses and that growth is possible on the internet. It's like adding lanes to a busy freeway, to allow the cars to move freely without needing to stop.How ColoCrossing did it
ColoCrossing enabled IPv6 support in all of their core data centers. It is not just an afterthought, it is part of their core design. The best part is that there is nothing that customers have to hassle with to enable their use of IPv6. This should be a fairly simple upgrade!Benefits for the Client
