How to choose an 'invisible bodyguard' for your data server?

Enterprises engage in data storage and processing, what is the most afraid of? Server card into PPT, crawlers were blocked IP, hackers staring at the fight ... ... This time there is a "stealth bodyguard" is very important. Today we are talking about proxy IP, which is specialized in giving data servers to wear invisibility cloak of the tough role.

Real Case: E-Commerce Company Crashed by Anti-Crawl

Last year, a clothing e-commerce company to do competitive analysis, their own servers crawled for three days of data, the resultsThe entire company's IP segment has been blacked outIt's a good idea to use the dynamic residential proxy of ipipgo. Later used ipipgo's dynamic residential agent, the request is dispersed to more than 200 cities across the country, and now every day stable crawl 100,000 + commodity data, and no more moths.

Three Tips to Make Data Servers Fly

Tip #1: Distributed Crawlers
Don't let your own server run naked to crawl data, use ipipgo's exclusive proxy pool, each crawler thread with an independent IP. a chestnut, 20 crawlers with 50 rotating IP, than with a single IP efficiency at least 3 times.

Tip #2: Stress Test Blindfold
When doing server stress testing, use proxy IPs from different regions of the world to simulate real traffic. Especially before the e-commerce promotion, use ipipgo's overseas nodes to do full-link pressure testing, which can measure the bugs that can't be found by domestic IP.

Tip #3: The Log Cleaning Gods
Server logs laced with tons of junk requests? Set up ipipgo's whitelist proxy to only allow requests from specific IP segments into the core database. Last week a customer relied on this trick to reduce the amount of invalid logs from 37% to 5%.

Don't ever step into these potholes!

The worst case I've seen: a company bought a shared proxy on the cheap, and as a result50 IPs shared by 10 departmentsI'm not sure if I've ever had a problem with that, but I'm sure I've never had a problem with that. Later changed to ipipgo's exclusive proxy, each business line separate IP pool, access success rate directly soared to 98%.

There is another misunderstanding to be reminded: not the more IPs the better! There is a customer who does public opinion monitoring, and at first, he bought 100,000 IPs which he could not use up at all. Later, the ipipgo technical team made him aIntelligent Dispatch ProgramThe actual use of only 3,000 high-quality IP, the cost savings of 60%, but the results are better.

QA time

Q: Will proxy IPs slow down the server?
A: Good question! Inferior proxies do, but ipipgo's self-built server room latency is controlled within 20ms, which is faster than many company intranets. The measured data throughput can go up to 1.2Gbps, and passing 4K video is not even stuck.

Q: How to ensure the stability of proxy IP?
A: Remember three key points: 1) Pick supportReal-time heartbeat detectionThe service provider 2) to have a spare IP automatic switching 3) to see if there is SLA guarantee. Like ipipgo's enterprise package, dare to promise 99.95% availability, hanging by the minute compensation.

Q: Is it necessary for small businesses?
A: say a real data: with ipipgo basic version of the small and medium-sized enterprises, the average savings of 30% server expenses. Especially for online business, anti-crawler, anti-CC attack, these just need, much cheaper than self-built fire prevention.

When it comes to choosing a proxy IP is like looking for a partner, don't just look at the quantity, but also look at the quality. ipipgo has served more than 300 companies in the past two years, and there is a trick to it."Business Scenario Customization, such as financial customers wanting ultra-high anonymity, gaming customers wanting low latency, and e-commerce customers wanting massive IP pools, all of which can be straightened out for you.
