Big data acquisition cost control: agent resource optimization

First, why can proxy IP help enterprises save money?

The friends who engage in big data collection understand that the biggest headache is to be blocked IP and bandwidth to burn money. Last month, an e-commerce friend complained to me, they climbed the price of competing products, just to buy a server to spend a small 100,000, the results were blocked more than 200 IP. this time, if you use the right proxy IP service, at least half the cost can be saved.

Take us.ipipgo dynamic poolFor example, the system will automatically decentralize the request to different regions of the export IP. for example, you want to collect a certain east of the national commodity price, with the Shanghai server room directly connected to be easily identified, but through the ipipgo Shandong, Guangdong, Sichuan nodes rotating access, triggered by the probability of anti-climbing directly down seventy percent.

Second, the three tricks to the agent resources to the knife's edge

Tip 1: Don't use a dynamic IP as a fixed IP.
Many newbies tend to make this mistake, buying a dynamic package but using the IP pool as a fixed IP. The correct position is to set5-10 minutes of automatic switchingThe ipipgo backend can set up an automatic replacement strategy, which saves you a lot of work compared to managing it manually.

Tip #2: Double your efficiency with the right protocol

ipipgo's protocol adaptation feature has been measured to improve the 30% acquisition speed, especially with theirSmart Tunnel TechnologyThe point about auto-matching optimal protocols really smells good.

Tip #3: Don't buy a large traffic package
Don't be fooled by "unlimited traffic", enterprise-level collection simply can't be used up. It is recommended to buyipipgo's Flexible Traffic Pack, use as much as you want to charge. Last month we tested and found that with the request de-duplication technology, the 200G traffic package can do the work of others 500G.

Third, to avoid the pit guide: these money must not save

1. Captcha Recognition Don't Build Your Own Wheels
I've seen a team spend three months developing CAPTCHA recognition, the result is only 60% accuracy. not as good as directly using ipipgo'sMan-Machine Validation Solutions, people specialize in this, and the success rate can go up to 92% or more.

2. IP quality monitoring must be done
Don't wait until the collection is interrupted to realize that the IP is blocked. ipipipgo backstageReal-time healthiness monitoringTo be on. Set the automatic alarm when the available nodes are lower than 80%, a feature that many homes charge extra for, and which is standard in their home.

Fourth, the actual QA: bosses are most concerned about the five questions

Q：How to emergency when my IP is blocked?
A: Immediately turn it on in the ipipgo consolefused protection modeThe system will automatically isolate the problem IP and allocate new nodes from the standby pool. Pay attention to check whether the request frequency is over the limit, and they have a smart speed limit function that is recommended to be turned on.

Q: How to select nodes for transnational collection?
A: Prioritization of target areasLocal Residential IPFor example, picking U.S. data with ipipgo's North American residential pool. Measured IP survival time than the room 3 times longer, although the unit price is more expensive, but the overall cost is lower.

Q: Do you string IPs when running multiple projects at once?
A: Created in the ipipgo backendSeparate sub-accountsWe have been running 8 crawler projects at the same time for half a year. We run 8 crawler projects at the same time, and we haven't had any wind control problems caused by IP stringing for half a year.

Finally, to tell the truth, the proxy IP with a good, three points rely on technology and seven points rely on operation and maintenance. It's better to choose a reliable service provider than anything else, like ipipgo, which can provide you with the best service.7×24 hours technical supportIt can really save your life when something goes wrong. Last time we triggered the platform wind control at 3am, their engineers replaced the whole solution in 10 minutes, it was worth the money.
