Why hosting in Buenos Aires looks the way it does

Buenos Aires is OnionVPS's Southern Cone hub, with CABASE peering into Argentine eyeball networks. The facility offers 40 Gbit/s uplink, DDoS scrubbing, native IPv6 /64, NVMe storage, and custom ISO upload. Its strategic position on major internet exchanges delivers low latency across Latin America: 5 ms to Montevideo, 16 ms to Asunción, 17 ms to Santiago, and 25 ms to São Paulo. GDPR does not apply, and the jurisdiction sits outside the Fourteen Eyes framework, making it a strong choice for data sovereignty in the region.

Customers deploy content delivery nodes, gaming servers, and streaming services to reach Argentine audiences with minimal latency. The CABASE peering ensures efficient routing to local ISPs. Others run data processing for regional operations, leveraging the lack of GDPR and Eyes-alliance obligations to host data that must remain outside European and Five Eyes jurisdictions.

Frequently asked questions

Is Argentina a good place to host a server?

The Southern Cone hub, with CABASE peering into Argentine eyeball networks.

Is Argentina in the Five, Nine or Fourteen Eyes?

No. Argentina is not a member of the Five, Nine or Fourteen Eyes intelligence-sharing alliances, which is one reason it appears in our core tier.

Does the DMCA apply to a server in Argentina?

No. The DMCA is United States copyright statute and binds service providers situated in the US. A server in Argentina is governed by Argentina copyright law, which generally requires a court order rather than a private notice. Copyright still applies; only the enforcement mechanism differs.

How fast is Buenos Aires from Europe and North America?

Estimated round trips are approximately 157 ms to Frankfurt and 116 ms to Ashburn. These are computed from great-circle distance rather than measured, so treat them as a floor.

Do I need to identify myself to order in Buenos Aires?

No. Every OnionVPS location has the same signup: an email address you control and a cryptocurrency payment. No name, no address, no document, no card.

What is the latency to São Paulo?

Estimated round-trip time is 25 ms, making Buenos Aires an excellent location for serving users in Brazil's largest city. This low latency supports real-time applications like gaming and VoIP, and it complements our São Paulo region for redundant deployments.

Are there restrictions on content hosted here?

OnionVPS follows local law. Since the DMCA does not apply, copyright takedown generally requires a court order. We do not impose extra content restrictions beyond legal requirements. You retain full root access to your KVM instance and can run most software, subject to Argentine law.
