contabo's core data center - detailed evaluation of German VPS, with data comparison between leisure and evening peak hours

contabo is a long-established business in Germany. It has been operating for at least 17 years. It has 2 data centers in Germany, both of which are self-built. Because contabo's VPS is cheap, has high configuration, large bandwidth, and large traffic, it is like an artifact, so it also has a certain degree of popularity in mainland China. Let’s give you an evaluation of the VPS in the German computer room. The data is for reference only.

VPS features: KVM virtual, HDD or pure SSD, one free snapshot, comes with an IPv4 (+/64 IPv6), minimum 200Mbps bandwidth, maximum 1Gbps bandwidth, default 32T traffic per month; if you need additional Windows system Add €4.99/month.

Memory	CPU	NVMe/SSD	Bandwidth	Price	Purchase
8G	4 cores	50G/200G	200M	$6.99/month	Link
16G	6 cores	100G/400G	400M	$11.99/month	Link
30G	8 cores	200G/800G	600M	$14.99/month	Link
60G	10 cores	400G/1.6T	1Gbps	$26.99/month	Link

The webmaster chose the lowest configuration VPS, 8G memory, 4 cores, 50G NVMe (if you are interested, you can choose 200G SSD, the price is the same), the default bandwidth is 200M, and the monthly traffic limit is 32T...

After getting the VPS, I checked and found that the CPU was AMD Snapdragon 7282. The average I/O in the test was approximately 560MB/S. It is recommended that you enable BBR:

After the FIO test, it still works:

I don’t know what you think, but what we are most concerned about here is how much upstream and downstream bandwidth the VPS can run. For this reason, we specially conducted tests during the day and evening peak hours, using the China node of speedtest.net. Everyone Compare:

Test results of other nodes in Asia:

The effect of running iperf3 in Europe and America:

Whether the speed is good or not, you still have to test it locally. The webmaster is Guangzhou Telecom and uses the Chrome browser to download files on the VPS. At the evening peak around 21:00, the speed is approximately 9.8MB/S:

Let’s compare the daytime period again, 12.7MB/S:

Test PING during evening peak hours, data provided by ping.chinaz.com, average of about 80 nodes:

On the outbound telecommunications journey, the backbone network goes to the UK and then to Germany, using level 3:

For China Unicom's outbound journey, the backbone goes directly to Germany via telia:

Move the outbound journey, transfer Hong Kong CMI to level 3 to the United States and then go to Germany:

Return to Mainland China Telecom: Beijing and Guangzhou directions take China Telecom's German nodes directly back, and Shanghai direction directly connects to Germany's Telia backbone network

Return to China Unicom: In the direction of Beijing, take Telia to connect to AS4837 and come back directly; in the direction of Shanghai, take level 3 and go around San Jose in the United States and then connect to AS4837; in the direction of Guangzhou, take level 3 and go around Los Angeles and then connect to AS4837 to return home

Return, move to mainland China: In the direction of Beijing, the German computer room takes telia to the UK and then directly connects back to China; in the Shanghai and Guangzhou directions, both are directly connected to the mobile node in Germany

Finally, take a look at the Unix bench mark, 3084. Is it pretty good? !

Overall evaluation:

The Internet access to mainland China is actually very average. Some are detoured, some are not; some are not detoured through Telia, and some are directly connected to the German nodes of the three networks. High configuration, strong performance, cheap price, average network, it’s up to you to choose! Running in Europe and America is absolutely awesome!
