  In the global server market, the United States, as the birthplace of the Internet, has long played a key role, especially in the field of "high-bandwidth servers". The US data center is favored by domestic and foreign users for its excellent network infrastructure, resource-rich IDC environment and flexible service strategy. But because there are too many choices and large regional differences, many people still have many questions about whether to choose a US data center and how to choose a suitable high-bandwidth server.

  The so-called high-bandwidth server refers to an independent server or VPS host with large traffic transmission capabilities. Usually, the upstream bandwidth can reach 1Gbps\~10Gbps, or even higher; the monthly traffic starts at 10TB, and many provide unlimited traffic; it is suitable for high-traffic scenarios such as audio and video content distribution, download stations, streaming media, live broadcasts, and data collection.

  Why is it recommended to choose a US data center for high-bandwidth servers?

  The United States has the world's earliest backbone network architecture and builds a global interconnection foundation through multiple ISPs. Due to the extremely rich bandwidth resources, the unit bandwidth cost is 30% or even more cheaper than in Europe, Japan and other places. For high-bandwidth services, choosing a US data center can greatly reduce long-term operation and maintenance costs.

  Unlike the "theoretical unlimited traffic" in some areas of Asia and Europe, most hosting providers in the United States support real unlimited traffic, that is, bandwidth peak limit, but no limit on monthly transmission volume. For example, 1Gbps exclusive unlimited traffic, 10Gbps shared unlimited traffic, and 100TB/month large traffic cap plan. This is particularly important for projects that require long-term and stable data transmission.

  The United States has a vast territory, multiple regions to choose from, and a wide distribution of computer rooms, which can flexibly meet the needs of different markets. Compared with the European Union and other regions, the United States has relatively loose supervision on network content, which is suitable for sites with high content diversity, such as video resource sites, file distribution sites, etc. Of course, this does not mean that it can violate regulations and laws, but within a reasonable range, business freedom is higher.

  Technical advantages of high-bandwidth computer rooms in the United States

  Support multi-ISP backhaul optimization and adapt to global access. Some American computer rooms provide China Optimized or CN2 GIA lines, which can greatly optimize the access quality of mainland China. For example, the Los Angeles computer room optimizes CT/CU to achieve controllable access delay within 150ms in the mainland.

  Advanced data center facilities ensure stable operation. Many US IDCs have Tier III or Tier IV certification. The computer room is equipped with N+1 redundant power supply system, multi-line backbone direct connection, 24/7 technical team monitoring, hardware RAID redundancy, KVM remote management, etc. This makes the server extremely stable and very suitable for projects with extremely high requirements for online rate.

  Precautions for choosing high-bandwidth servers in the United States

  1. Check whether the bandwidth type is shared or exclusive? Sharing may have peak speed limits, and exclusive is more stable.

  2. Real unlimited traffic vs. monthly traffic package: Pay attention to terminology traps. Some service providers will mark "unmetered", but in fact they have a fair use policy.

  3. Test line quality: If serving users in mainland China, be sure to test the access quality of the three networks to avoid high latency and high packet loss.

  4. Confirm hardware performance and configuration: High bandwidth is only transmission capacity, and the actual performance also depends on CPU, memory, disk IO and other configurations.

  5. DDoS protection capability: For public network services, it is recommended to choose a service provider with basic protection or optional enhanced defense solutions.

  6. Whether it supports Chinese customer service or Alipay: If your English ability is limited, you can give priority to IDC proxy platforms that support Chinese services.

  Is the US high-bandwidth server worth buying? The answer is very worthwhile. The US data center is undoubtedly one of the most mature, free and practical high-bandwidth server options in the world. But the premise is that you must reasonably evaluate your usage goals and network needs, combine the actual bandwidth performance and the characteristics of the data center area, and choose the right solution and service provider to maximize the cost-effectiveness.
