Why Tokyo
What this location is good at.
Close to Japanese gamers
Japan is one of the world's largest gaming markets. Core 16X, with boost clocks up to 5.7 GHz and 128 MB of 3D V-Cache, suits game servers that depend on single-thread speed.
On transpacific routes
Japan is a major landing point for subsea cables to North America and across Asia, which makes Tokyo a natural partner for Los Angeles in services that span the Pacific.

Audience and compliance
Is Tokyo right for you?
Who should host in Tokyo
Game servers, web services and APIs for Japanese users, companies entering the Japanese market, and services that also reach South Korea and Taiwan. Two configurations are available, both ready in minutes: Core 16 ($299/mo) and Core 16X ($399/mo), whose high clocks and 3D V-Cache suit game servers. Both include unmetered traffic on a 10 Gbps port and always-on DDoS protection on every IP. If you need more cores or memory in Asia, Pro servers are available in Singapore, and custom builds are available by quote.
Data and compliance
Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI) is enforced by the Personal Information Protection Commission (PPC). Amendments in force since April 2022 made reporting of certain data breaches mandatory and tightened the rules for providing personal data to third parties abroad, which generally require consent with information about the destination country or equivalent safeguards at the recipient. Japan and the EU have recognized each other's data protection frameworks as adequate since 2019. Hosting in Tokyo keeps data in Japan; on unmanaged servers, security measures and backups are your responsibility.

FAQ
Tokyo, answered.
Which servers can I deploy in Tokyo?
Core 16 ($299/mo) and Core 16X ($399/mo), both with 16 Zen 5 cores, DDR5 ECC memory, NVMe storage and a 10 Gbps port with unmetered traffic. Both are pre-racked and usually delivered within 15 minutes of payment. For Pro servers in Asia-Pacific, use Singapore.
Is Tokyo a good location for game servers?
Yes, for players in Japan and nearby markets. Core 16X runs at up to 5.7 GHz with 128 MB of 3D V-Cache, every IP has always-on DDoS protection, and traffic on the 10 Gbps port is unmetered, so growing player counts do not add bandwidth costs.
How do I connect Tokyo servers with my US infrastructure?
Traffic between Tokyo and other FlexDedi locations travels over the public network and is unmetered, so an encrypted tunnel such as WireGuard is the usual way to link them. Los Angeles is our closest US location to Tokyo, which makes it the natural US counterpart for a transpacific setup.
Does hosting in Tokyo help with APPI compliance?
It keeps the data physically in Japan, which avoids questions about providing personal data to third parties in a foreign country for that storage. APPI duties such as security control measures and breach reporting still apply to how you handle the data, and on unmanaged servers they are yours to implement.
