Hawk Host - Complete Canadian Web Hosting

Since our founding in 2004, Hawk Host has been proud to be a Canadian company, and we continue to call the Great White North our official home. With the recent launch of our cloud computing infrastructure in our Toronto data center, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on our history and what being Canadian means to Hawk Host.

Hawk Host began in 2004, originally known as Devoted Host, and from day one, we established ourselves as a Canadian business. Although our first data centers were located outside of Canada, we now operate a fully redundant cloud infrastructure in Toronto, which is our fastest-growing location! Hawk Host remains incorporated in Canada, our executive leadership team proudly calls Canada home, and we participate in annual traditions like our Boxing Day sales. Canada is often associated with winter, characterized by cold and snow. However, the warmth and kindness of our people stand in stark contrast to the chilly physical attributes of our homeland.

Our Toronto location was established in response to customer feedback and the interest of fellow Canadian site owners, businesses, and hobbyists who wanted to host with a Canadian company on Canadian soil. We opened in Toronto in 2017, initially offering shared web hosting services. Over time, we realized that the demand for hosting within Canada would outpace the infrastructure we were using. Our engineering team spent months researching and developing a top-tier infrastructure, dedicating even more time to deploying this new system in Toronto. We couldn’t be prouder of the results. We have seen a remarkable improvement in system performance for our shared hosting customers, while our cloud compute customers enjoy enterprise-level performance within a completely redundant infrastructure.

When you host with Hawk Host in Toronto, whether using shared hosting or cloud compute, your data is stored on servers located entirely in Canada, meaning your data does not leave Canadian soil. In today’s environment, safeguarding your data is more important than ever, and keeping it within the borders of your own country may be essential to you. Whether you choose one of our standard hosting packages or a custom environment created in collaboration with our team, we are confident that our Toronto infrastructure can meet your hosting needs. If you’re not necessarily looking for hosting in Toronto, we offer a variety of other locations, such as Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam. We suspect no matter your locality needs, we have a high performance hosting location close to you.

With our Toronto upgrades completed, our team is now exploring other Canadian locations for future cloud hosting services. Montreal and Vancouver are on our shortlist, but we welcome your feedback if you have another location in mind. To our fellow Canadians, we appreciate your support as a Canadian company!
