contabo: Detailed evaluation of Singapore data center VPS, data comparison tells you how contabo is

Many people know that contabo is a German company and has its own computer room in Germany. In fact, contabo also has a data center in Asia, that is Singapore. Perhaps based on the rules of the market and the high configuration of Contabo, you can judge that the price of this Singapore vps must be sky-high. However, in fact, it is not much different from the price in Germany.

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

I don’t know if the NVMe series hard drives chosen are all AMD EPYC series CPUs. Anyway, this was the case when I tested the German VPS before. This test still chooses the lowest configuration. The CPU is still Xiaolong 7282, 8G memory, 4 cores, 50G NVMe, 200Mbps bandwidth, 30T traffic per month... The hard disk I/O is roughly 1031MB/S, see the picture below:

FIO test, you can take a closer look:

We use speedtest.net China nodes to test the upstream and downstream bandwidth of the VPS to see how much bandwidth can be achieved in mainland China. Let’s carefully compare the actual effects during the daytime leisure period and the evening peak congestion period:

Evening peak:

Test results of other nodes in Asia:

The effect of running iperf3 in Europe and America:

There is a comparison of speedtest between day and night. Here, the webmaster Guangzhou Telecom uses Chrome to browse and prepare to download files on the VPS. The speed comparison between day and night is still as follows:

Looking at the evening peak, it is only 7.7M/s:

Singapore, if it is directly connected, then the ping should not be too high. However, the results of the 80 node test in mainland China on ping.chinaz.com are too surprising. Basically, you can know this kind of data without looking at it. The route is detoured:

The outbound telecommunications journey took a detour through the United States and took HE.NET:

China Unicom's outbound journey takes a detour through the United States and still takes HE.NET

On the outbound journey, Hong Kong CMI connects with HE.NET and bypasses the United States:

Return to Mainland China Telecom: Detour to Los Angeles, take Telia, and then return to China

Return to China Unicom: detour to Los Angeles, USA, and connect to AS4837 with telia in the direction of Beijing,

In the direction of Shanghai, leave Singapore and go to Japan, then take HE to Los Angeles and then connect AS4837 to return home

Guangzhou direction is basically the same as Shanghai direction:

Return, move to mainland China: Beijing direction, Singapore to Japan and then to Los Angeles, take HE, then connect to AS9808 to return home

In the direction of Shanghai, Singapore goes around Los Angeles, USA, and takes the Los Angeles mobile node directly back to China

In the direction of Guangzhou, Singapore moves the node around Los Angeles, then moves the node to Hong Kong, and then returns to the mainland

Finally, taking a look at the Unix bench, it seems that the effect is quite good:

To summarize:

The configuration is good, the performance is powerful, and the price is cheap. However, the three networks bypass the United States. If you must use it, China Unicom may be relatively better.
