The forge
Network
How traffic gets in and out of Iceland, how far it is, and how to serve from a job.
Uplinks
F1 has two 100 Gb/s uplinks on different carriers, over the IRIS cable to Ireland and DANICE to Denmark. Either one can carry all traffic alone.
Latency
| From | Median round trip, ms |
|---|---|
| London | 38 |
| Amsterdam | 44 |
| New York | 82 |
| San Francisco | 141 |
Medians over the last 30 days. Preview figures until real traffic replaces them.
Serving from a job
List ports in ports and each one gets a TLS endpoint at https://<job>-<port>.f1.useblackforge.com, protected by your API key unless you mark it public. Use an Anvil or a long Strike limit for endpoints that must stay up.
Egress and ingress
Ingress is free. Egress is free to 5 TB a month per team, then 0.015 USD per GB. Traffic between jobs and storage inside the forge is never counted.
Outbound from jobs
Jobs can reach the internet to pull data and push results. They have no inbound access except through ports. A fixed outbound IP per team is available on request, for allow lists.
Private links
Teams with an Anvil can ask for a private interconnect in Reykjavík or a cloud interconnect in Dublin. Ask in a work order.
