Summary
31173 Services
colo datacenter hosting
A Swedish data-center and network operator, 31173 Services AB, announcing as ESAB-AS. It owns and operates data centers in Malmö and Lund and runs an IP/MPLS network across northern and central Europe.
What it's used for
- Colocation, hosting, and network/transit services with Swedish/EU data residency, plus VPS/game-server hosting delivered by customers on its network.
Notable
- An IP here identifies 31173 as the host, not the operator of the hosted service.
- The network spans many PoPs from Stockholm toward Central Europe (Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Zurich), which is why it shows up as an upstream for other regional hosts.
Interesting
- The name "31173" reads as "ELITE" in leetspeak, reflecting its roots serving low-latency gaming and enthusiast hosting in the Nordic region.
