How about 98cloud? CN2 cloud server in Los Angeles, USA, three networks force CN2 backhaul, unlock netflix/chatgpt

How about 98cloud? How about 98cloud Los Angeles cloud server? We have previously written about 98cloud’s Hong Kong cloud server evaluation. Since overseas cloud servers are also in Los Angeles, the United States, we might as well test them here. Officially, the Los Angeles cloud server uses the CN2 line by default, comes with a 40G system disk + 20G free data disk + 10Mbps cn2 network (unlimited traffic), and supports Windows and Linux operating systems. What is the actual situation? Is it suitable for mainland China user groups? Let’s take a look at the actual evaluation data, for reference only!

Official website: https://www.98cloud.com/

The CPU model is e5-2697v2 (single channel is 12 cores, 24 threads, main frequency 2.7GHz, acceleration frequency 3.5GHz), the webmaster has enabled BBR, and is located in Los Angeles. The current hard disk I/O is approximately 344MB/S:

FIO tests reading and writing data, roughly as follows:

The default bandwidth of the cloud server is 10Mbps. Let’s run the uplink and downlink using nodes in mainland China to see the approximate data:

Why did the test during the day become 30M? Because a new configuration was opened during the day, the bandwidth was changed to 30Mbps. Continue to see the effect:

The test results of some international nodes of speedtest:

The test results of speedtest nodes in Asia:

iperf3 tests the effects of several European and American nodes:

During the evening peak period, the 10Mbps bandwidth cloud server and Guangzhou Unicom home bandwidth directly use the browser to download the files stored on the test chicken. The download speed is as follows:

During the day, the download speed of a cloud server with 30Mbps bandwidth is as follows:

Evening peak, Sichuan Meishan China Unicom, download speed:

Evening peak, Hubei Shiyan Telecom, download speed:

Latency test of multiple nodes of three networks in mainland China:

Outbound telecommunications: via CN2

Unicom Outbound: You can only see the backbone network going out from China Unicom Hong Kong node, and the back seems to be the intranet

Mobile outbound: Mobile backbone to Mobile Hong Kong CMI, which seems to be the intranet

Telecom backhaul: A section of the route cannot be seen from the computer room. It is a bit like an intranet. The backbone of mainland China starts with the CN2 route

Unicom backhaul: Forced to take the Telecom route, just transfer to China Unicom after China Telecom CN2

Mobile backhaul: It is also forced to take the telecommunications route, and then transfer to mobile after CN2 in mainland China

tiktok streaming media unlock test: invalid

Unlocking some cross-regional streaming media: Naifei video, steam currency, chatgpt can be solved

Some North American streaming media unlocking tests:

Cloud server performance test:

A rough summary:

At present, there is almost no need to worry about general tasks, the cloud server performance is still good;

In terms of network, the three networks are forced to use the CN2 link to return to the country. The speed is guaranteed, and some streaming media such as Naifei, steam currency, chatgpt, etc. can be unlocked. You can consider it based on your actual needs. Overall, the price/performance ratio is pretty good.
