Regions — geographically distributed flespi datacenters

The location for all data in your flespi account.

In flespi the place where all data is processed and storage resides called region

Currently we operate a single region available worldwide coded as EU which is serviced by two data centers in the Netherlands. These data-centers provides RAID-1 like platform operation over the Internet with full data mirroring and independent set of all external and internal services. Our intention is to provide uninterruptible platform service in case of any data-center will be unexpectedly shutdown due to any catastrophe.

These data-centers have dedicated set of IP addresses and fully autonomous. That's why you may expect to resolve your channels domain names and flespi MQTT or REST API endpoints into multiple IP addresses. Same with streams that push data to your server - they can do this from two different IP addresses depending on from which data-center currently each particular stream is now operating.

flespi makes all outbound requests from these IPs: 185.213.2.10, 185.213.2.110. If you are configuring the firewall to accept traffic from our platform (connections from streams, proxy and pulling-type channels), we suggest to whitelist the whole IP network: 185.213.2.0/24. All the inbound connections to flespi channels domains are also resolved into 185.213.2.0/24.

EU region is operated by UAB Gurtam which is located in Lithuania and all data storage and processing are covered by European GDPR regulations.

All incidents with EU region are automatically reported into the NOC channel in Telegram.

Current operational status of flespi platform is published online onto status page which is updated in real-time. There you can always check how many devices, channels, streams, users are working with the platform right now, how many device or MQTT messages and REST API calls were served in last minute and monitor platform latency to various parts of the world on the interactive map.

The configuration of all flespi regions can be retrieved via the following REST API call: https://flespi.io/auth/regions
