Timeweb Cloud has officially launched its long-awaited US cloud server location, roughly three months after first announcing pre-orders for VPS deployment in New York. Back in late February, the company carefully hinted at an upcoming launch without revealing an exact opening date. Now the suspense is over: the American site is fully operational, giving customers another option for stretching infrastructure between Europe and North America without pretending the Atlantic Ocean is just a slightly oversized LAN cable.
The physical data center is located in Buffalo, New York. According to the provider, the facility has been connected to Timeweb Cloud’s backbone network to ensure stable connectivity between the US segment and the company’s other server locations.

Focus on North American Traffic and Distributed Infrastructure
The new location is aimed primarily at projects targeting users in the United States and Canada, as well as services using distributed infrastructure across multiple regions. Timeweb Cloud says the site should help reduce latency for North American audiences while improving communication between geographically separated systems.
In practice, this reflects a broader trend in the hosting market: applications are increasingly split between continents, while administrators continue the timeless tradition of explaining to management that “the cloud” still depends on physics and routing tables.
The company first opened pre-orders for the US location in February through its control panel. At that stage, users willing to prepay the full server cost received a 20% discount. With the official launch now completed, server deployment in the American region has become generally available.
Premium NVMe Lineup: From Entry-Level VPS to 8 vCPU Configurations
The US location uses Timeweb Cloud’s Premium NVMe product line. Customers can choose from both lightweight configurations for small-scale projects and more powerful servers with up to 8 vCPU resources and 1 Gbps connectivity.

| 1 × 3 GHz | 1 GB | 15 GB | 1 Gbps | 1,430 RUB (~$20) |
| 1 × 3 GHz | 2 GB | 30 GB | 200 Mbps | 1,140 RUB (~$15.8) |
| 2 × 3 GHz | 2 GB | 40 GB | 1 Gbps | 1,600 RUB (~$22) |
| 2 × 3 GHz | 4 GB | 50 GB | 1 Gbps | 2,100 RUB (~$29) |
| 4 × 3 GHz | 8 GB | 80 GB | 1 Gbps | 3,870 RUB (~$53.5) |
| 8 × 3 GHz | 12 GB | 100 GB | 1 Gbps | 6,050 RUB (~$84) |
| 8 × 3 GHz | 16 GB | 160 GB | 1 Gbps | 7,730 RUB (~$92) |
In addition to the predefined plans, users also have access to a server configurator for building custom infrastructure setups.
Seventh Server Location for Timeweb Cloud
The New York region has become the seventh server location in the Timeweb Cloud network. For hosting providers operating in Eastern Europe and the CIS market, overseas infrastructure is increasingly less about prestige and more about redundancy, international traffic handling, and business continuity.
Against the backdrop of growing demand for multi-region deployments, the launch itself hardly comes as a surprise. The only surprising part is how long it took the hosting industry to admit that half of modern infrastructure now lives permanently somewhere between Frankfurt and New York.
