How about alphavps? A brief evaluation of the AMD series VPS in the Los Angeles data center

alphavps, a VPS brand that started operating in 2013, has added AMD EPYC and Ryzen series VPS in the past two years. It focuses on high performance and has its own computer room in Bulgaria and machines hosted in the WEBNX computer room in Los Angeles, USA. How about alphavps? What we bring to you this time is the Ryzen+DDR4+NVMe series from the Los Angeles computer room. The data is for reference only.

In the background, there are not only Linux templates, but also a separate ISO series to choose from, which includes the 180-day trial version of the Windows server operating system and the extremely clean network installation board Linux operating system...

The webmaster casually bought the lowest configuration. The CPU is Ryzen 9 3900X (the Ryzen 9 5000 series that has been sold for a while). The main frequency is 3.8GHz. The current I/O is roughly 1.3GB/S. The site BBR has been turned on for a long time:

FIO retested the current I/O again, and the general status is also amazing:

speedtest.net will conduct a simple test on different nodes of the three networks in mainland China to see how much uplink and downlink bandwidth it can achieve:

The test was performed during the evening peak backbone network explosion period, and the approximate results are as follows:

Under global multi-node testing, including nodes in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa:

Let’s try the test of nodes in Asia excluding China:

Test several nodes in Europe and America with iperf3:

The same test, during the evening peak backbone network explosion:

Latency test data of multi-nodes of three networks in mainland China (tested during evening peak period):

Telecom outbound, backbone network docking with TATA:

China Unicom outbound, China Unicom backbone direct to American Unicom AS19174:

Mobile outbound, Mobile International CMI docking PCCW to the United States:

Return to Telecom in Mainland China: From Telecom’s Los Angeles node, connect directly to Mainland China

Return to China Unicom: Direct connection from American Unicom AS19174 to mainland China

Return, move to mainland China:

Beijing and Shanghai directions: Mandatory China Unicom direct link back to China

Guangzhou direction: Return directly from China Mobile’s node in Seattle

Partial streaming media unblocking results across regions:

Results of partial streaming media unlocking test in North America:

Test results of some performance parameters:

A rough summary:

In terms of performance, both the CPU and the current hard disk I/O are amazing;

In terms of network, the backhaul of the three networks is all directly connected, and the optimization is quite good. This is very unusual in conventional networks...
