How about Linode? [2022] Linode Australian cloud server simple evaluation sharing

I have previously written about the cloud server evaluation of linode's data centers in Japan, Singapore, and India. This is the last "Australian" evaluation of linode's Asia-Pacific data center. What is the current situation of linode Australia's cloud servers? Is it suitable for the network environment in mainland China? What is the speed and performance like? We will share the data with you through actual measurements, and you can make your own judgment!

I opened a cloud server with the lowest configuration. The CPU seems to be AMD EPYC 7601 (2.2GHz frequency)

FIO tests hard disk read and write data in detail, roughly as follows:

Each node of speedtest.net helps us understand how much the bandwidth of the cloud server can reach. From the nearest node, we can see that the uplink is approximately 1Gbps and the downlink is approximately 9Gbps. Let’s look at the three network nodes in mainland China. The maximum uplink is up to to 400Mbps, and the downlink can reach 2.5Gbps...

Then compare the effect during the evening peak backbone network explosion:

Test data of other nodes in Asia:

Test data effects of European and American nodes:

The webmaster of the files stored on the test cloud server is Guangzhou Telecom. Download and test directly using Chrome. This should be the most intuitive. It can run 4.4MB/S during the day:

The effect during the evening rush hour is very ugly:

Latency monitoring of more than 160 nodes outside mainland China:

On the outbound telecommunications journey, the backbone network is connected to cogentco and bypasses the United States before returning to Australia:

China Unicom's outbound journey: The backbone network connects to Los Angeles in the United States, then takes Telstra back to Hong Kong and then to Australia:

Mobile outbound journey, CMI connects with cogentco to go to the United States and then return to Australia:

Return to China Telecom: Cogentco from Australia all the way to the United States and back

Return to China Unicom: The route is exactly the same as that of China Telecom. It also takes the cogentco from Australia and goes back to the United States

Return, move to mainland China:

Beijing direction: take Telstra from Australia to Singapore and back

Shanghai direction: Take the cogentco detour from Australia to the node in San Jose, USA and come back directly

Guangzhou direction: Take Telstra from Australia to Mobile Singapore node, then to Mobile Hong Kong node and back

Approximate test results of streaming media results:

Tiktok, generally judged to be an IDC IP, is basically unreliable:

Unix bench Mark：

A rough summary:

On the outbound journey, all three networks are detoured;

On the return trip, China Telecom and China Unicom will all bypass the United States;

Backhaul, mobile, Beijing and Guangzhou directions are all returned from the Singapore mobile node, and Shanghai direction are returned from the US mobile node; so the overall mobile effect is much better than China Telecom and China Unicom.

Personally, if it doesn’t look boring, I don’t recommend that mainland Chinese users use Australian cloud servers...
