Summary

BEKKOAME INTERNET INC.

Japan · AI-generated

hosting legacy

BEKKOAME — Bekkoame Internet Inc., one of the pioneering Japanese internet providers of the mid-1990s, today a business-focused hosting and data centre operator in Tokyo.

What it's used for

  • Housing (colocation), dedicated and managed hosting, VPS, cloud, and DNS services run out of Bekkoame's Asakusa, Tokyo data centre.

Notable

  • An IP here identifies Bekkoame as the host, not the operator of the hosted service. This is now a B2B infrastructure network, not an eyeball ISP.
  • Bekkoame transferred its consumer internet-access and hosting business to GMO Internet in 2004 and refocused on enterprise data centre services; the consumer BEKKOAME brand stopped taking new signups under GMO in 2016.

Interesting

  • Founded in 1994, Bekkoame was one of the best-known early independent ISPs of Japan's dial-up boom, and the name still carries nostalgia weight in Japanese internet history.

Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 432 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
