Alibaba Cloud Lightweight Application Server Singapore Data Center Speed ​​and Performance Experience Record

Starting this week, we can see major cloud service providers starting new year promotions and various new recruitment activities, which shows how fierce competition is in the cloud server market in mainland China. At least in the past two years, we have seen that Alibaba Cloud’s activities are basically for new talents to enjoy discounts, but it is impossible for us to open a new account every time, so we old users silently complain every time.

However, this time Alibaba Cloud merchants have a Hong Kong computer room for lightweight application servers that can be purchased by old users, so the Hong Kong lightweight servers with an annual payment of 144 yuan for half a year are sold out in just two days (Alibaba Cloud's new year's discount in Hong Kong The annual payment for lightweight application server is 144 yuan (1G/25GB/30Mbps). From the configuration point of view, the bandwidth is more attractive to everyone, but merchants are still merchants. Some netizens used it to test the performance of T5. But compared to the original price, it is cheaper. Why do merchants never have products that old users can get discounts on?

Similarly, Alibaba Cloud lightweight servers also have Singapore computer rooms. Some netizens think that if the Hong Kong computer rooms are sold out, they can buy Singapore computer rooms. They think that the region belongs to Asia and the speed is the same, but in fact the line is a relatively poor detour. Snail here also personally bought one to see how fast it is in Singapore. At least after netizens saw it, they wouldn’t waste money if they were really unsatisfied.

The latest ongoing activities of Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud:

1. Tencent Cloud flash sale event – ​​two cloud server/cloud database promotions per day

2. Compilation of Alibaba Cloud’s New Year’s Hi Purchase Season Events – Cloud Server 879 Yuan/3 Years, Rebate for New Purchases, and Lucky Draw Red Envelopes

Here Snail chose the configuration with a monthly payment of 24 yuan, 1G/25GB/30Mbps Singapore computer room.

First, PING speed test

We can see that the PING speed is not as good as that of Hong Kong.

To summarize, we can see that the Alibaba Cloud lightweight server's Singapore computer room line mobile and China Unicom speeds are acceptable, but telecommunications are detoured. Therefore, there is a certain reason why Hong Kong has been out of stock since the beginning, and Singapore has always had inventory. Users should be aware of this problem.
