Personal test of Alibaba Cloud lightweight server Hong Kong data center speed stability and website building selection suggestions

Today is the National Day. First of all, Lao Zuo wishes the motherland and all netizens a happy holiday. At present, the cloud products provided by Alibaba Cloud merchants basically cover what we need and some what we don’t need. For cloud servers, we can see independent virtual hosts, ECS cloud servers, elastic bare metal services, lightweight application servers, etc. It is not difficult for netizens with certain experience to choose, but some novice netizens first look at the price when choosing a server. For example, we have seen that the lightweight application server in Hong Kong, China starts as low as 24 yuan per month, so everyone chooses it, but after using it, they find that the speed is not as expected.

The backhaul of China's Hong Kong lightweight server is CN2, and the outbound China Telecom is NTT, while China Unicom and China Mobile are directly connected. Therefore, in terms of speed and stability, it is not as good as the ECS server directly connected to the Hong Kong computer room. This is also the reason why it is cheaper. This morning, Lao Zuo was also waiting for the live broadcast of the military parade. He was also idle, so he used this time to conduct detailed line tests in the Hong Kong computer room of the Alibaba Cloud lightweight server.

First, lightweight server Hong Kong computer room PING test

From the PING speed test, it seems that the speed is pretty good. Many people may be confused by such a test. Because some hosting providers do have good PING speeds, but they are a bit laggy during actual use, and there is no actual speed process that can be seen. Lao Zuo has experienced the performance of the basic package before, so I will not test it here. This article is mainly about testing the circuit.

Second, random telecom node line routing test

Here we can see that the telecom nodes use NTT lines. In the morning we see that the PING data is basically not very different because it is not noticeable during the day, but it is very obvious at night. There are many node areas where the PING speed exceeds 100.

Third, random mobile node routing test

Fourth, China Unicom node route tracing test

To summarize, Alibaba Cloud's current lightweight application servers are indeed cheaper than ECS servers in terms of price, and the bandwidth configuration is much more generous. However, in fact, telecommunications lines use NTT for the outbound route, and the return route is still CN2. If we need to build an ordinary website It can be used. If you have strict requirements on speed, it is recommended to choose a traditional ECS server.
