DigitalOcean India VPS is now online with simple review

In February, DigitalOcean announced that it would add a new node in India. In June, it was discovered that it had launched an Indian vps host with a data center in Bangalore, India (known as the Silicon Valley of India). Although India is much closer to mainland China than the United States, the speed is not as good as everyone imagines. Through route tracing, it is still around the United States. For vps hosts that need to choose DigitalOcean, it is still recommended to go to San Francisco. Singapore’s lines are not good either. What everyone must be familiar with is that DigitalOcean has been sending out a large number of new user discounts for a period of time when it was first established, especially the $100 gift event. Due to the large number of random registrations by Chinese people, a large number of accounts in mainland China have been blocked, which has caused Chinese registration needs to be reviewed. If you register and find that your account is locked, you need to provide relevant materials before it can be opened. You can refer to: What should I do if my newly registered DigitalOcean account is locked? .

In terms of price and configuration, the newly launched Indian vps are consistent with all other DigitalOcean datacenters. The minimum configuration starts from 512M memory, and the minimum monthly payment starts from 5 US dollars. The monthly payment is about 33 per month, which is actually the same as that in China The prices of many hosting providers in mainland China are also similar. VPS hosting based on KVM architecture, optional datacenters include India, Singapore, New York, San Francisco, London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, the Netherlands and other countries and regions. VPS can be opened, deleted and the balance returned to the account at any time.

I also tested the download speed of software in mainland China. It can be said that it is terrible. The speed of tens of KB/S is really worrying! Ever since I reinstalled my computer to a 64-bit system, Putty has been disconnected frequently! The CPU uses E5-2650L v3 @ 1.80GHz. There are no restrictions on frequency, no swap, and the IO performance of the hard disk is a feature! In fact, DigitalOcean is very stable except for its slow speed. Friends with overseas business can give it a try!
