Global Content Acceleration Service

(July 16, 2002) Bitstop is proud to offer Global Content Acceleration Services for websites that wish to be mirrored on 22 international servers around the world.

This mirrored content is paired with advanced algorithms in content management that automatically redirects users to the nearest available server.

Users in Paris will be served from the Paris server, while users in Germany may be served from the Frankfurt servers , and so on…

The Philippine Government portal is the first to use this system. This service is ideal for ecommerce sites and those needing high availability, and low latency, fast response webpages.

The international servers are located in: Atlanta(2), Chicago(2), Dallas, San Jose, Los Angeles(2), New York(2), Seattle, Washington DC, London, Paris, Stockholm, Frankfurt(2), Hongkong, Tokyo(2), Singapore and Taipei.

Online Jukebox now restricted to Internal Use

(July 16, 2002) Our apologies to the internet community, but upon the advice of international experts, Bitstop is terminating the availability of the online jukebox site to the public.

Our advisers pointed out Bitstop’s need to be conscious of, and respect copyrights and avoid infringements of any sort even if the site is done solely for testing and evaluation purposes. Henceforth, the online jukebox will no longer be accessible to the public.
