Proxy IP Load Balancing for High Concurrency Scenarios: Ensuring Stable Business Operation

Proxy IP with netting secrets to carry the flood of traffic.

Last year's double eleven an e-commerce platform second crash event is still fresh in our minds, a million requests per second directly to the server dry lying. Now the enterprise to engage in online activities, there is no reliable proxy IP cluster support, minutes by the traffic washed out. Today, we will teach you how to use ipipgo's proxy IP to play around with high concurrency scenarios, to ensure that your business is as stable as the old dog.

The Three Deadly Wounds of Flow Flooding

The first one is IP blocked into a sieveThe target website's anti-climbing mechanism directly seals the IP, and the business immediately stops. A financial company with an ordinary proxy pool, 2 hours was ban off 60%IP, data collection directly cool.

The second is that traffic distribution is messed up: Hundreds of thousands of requests pile up during peak hours, and without an intelligent scheduling system, it's like a train station without ticket gates during the Spring Festival, all blocked at the entrance and staring blankly.

Thirdly, there is a serious waste of resourcesTraditional solutions are either a waste of money by buying too much IP, or a missed business opportunity by not using enough IP, similar to buying insurance - buying too much loses money, buying too little kills you.

ipipgo's four tricks to break the ice

Dynamic IP Pool + Intelligent SwitchingThe following is a list of some of the most popular IPs in the world: 90 million dynamic residential IPs are used to configure automatic switching rules. For example, set each IP to handle up to 500 requests, over the amount of automatic switching to a new IP, this is particularly useful in the crawler scene.

 Python Sample Code
import requests
from ipipgo_rotator import IPRotator

rotator = IPRotator(
    
    api_key="your_api_key", pool_size=1000,
    requests_per_ip=500
)

def fetch_data(url).
    with rotator.get_session() as session.
        return session.get(url).text

Geographical flow scheduling: Triage user requests by geographic location. For example, European and American users go to the Frankfurt node, Southeast Asia go to the Singapore node, with their city-level location function, the delay can be reduced to 40% or more.

Flow fusion mechanism: Set priorities for different lines of business. Core transaction links are secured with static IPs, and marketing activities are carried by dynamic IPs. A live streaming platform used this method, and the server load dropped 70% during 618.

Real cases speak for themselves.

A cross-border e-commerce company used ipipgo's last Black FridayCross-border Private Line + Dynamic IP PoolCombos:
1. Processing payment orders with static IPs (guaranteeing success rates)
2. Dynamic IP handling of product browsing (to cope with unexpected traffic)
3. Dedicated network to ensure cross-border transmission ≤ 2ms delay
As a result, it carried 8 million visits on the same day, with 0 downtime and 0 lost orders.

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: What should I do if there are always a few IPs failing during peak hours?
A: ipipgo's IP pool comes with aHealth Screening MechanismIf the primary pool is not available, it will automatically remove the failed nodes every 5 minutes. It is recommended to turn on the standby pool at the same time and automatically switch when the availability of the main pool is <95%.

Q: How to choose between dynamic and static IP?
A: Look at the business scenarios - need to keep the session for a long time (such as account login) with a static IP; short-time high-frequency requests (such as price crawlers) with dynamic IP is more cost-effective.

Q: How to quickly expand capacity for unexpected traffic?
A: Setting in the ipipgo consoleAuto-expansion rulesFor example, when the number of concurrency exceeds the current IP pool carrying capacity of 80%, 20%IP resources are automatically appended, and the expansion process is completed in seconds.

Choosing the right package is important

ipipgo's.Dynamic Residential (Enterprise Edition)Best suited for high concurrency scenarios:
- Support API to get IP list in real time
- Up to 24 hours per IP
- Self-contained load balancing API interface
If it is a long term fixed business, it is recommended to pair it withStatic Residential IPDo the bonding, so that the combination of movement is both cost effective and insured.

Lastly, don't try to use free proxies for cheap. Last year, a company was fined 8 million dollars for leaking user data. Professional things to professional people, ipipgo pay-as-you-go model, how much to use how much, than to build their own agent pool to save a lot of trouble.
