Here at Melbourne, we’re a big supporter of open source initiatives. From operating systems to web servers, our technical team love to get involved with open source projects.

To further support the growth of open source operating systems, we are now providing a public mirror service located in our Turing Datacentre.

The mirror service can be found at http://mirrors.melbourne.co.uk and is currently providing mirrors for Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS.

All existing Melbourne customers are encouraged to configure their operating systems package management software to use this mirror to reduce the amount of time updates take, as well as relieve the strain on existing mirrors.

We are more than happy to do this change over for you! - simply submit a ticket via our support portal

Rob Greenwood, Technical Lead
