DigitalOcean Singapore Datacentre is UP!

kyakykyaky Member
edited February 2014 in General

From the email:

Hello, Singapore!
You asked and we delivered...

Announcing the opening of our first datacenter in Singapore (SGP1)! This is highly anticipated news, as users throughout Asia Pacific and nearby regions such as India and Australia will have greater connectivity and a better overall experience.

We will continue to invest heavily in our infrastructure as more datacenters are added throughout the world. This is one of many exciting announcements to come within the first half of this year.

    Looks like Singapore's live now.

    Whereas before I could get a direct route from the Philippines to their Singapore test IP (70ms), now it looks like it's getting routed to the West Coast USA first and then back to Asia.

    Their speedtest: http://speedtest-sgp1.digitalocean.com/

    now we have 1TB of bandwidth 512MB KVM VPS with 20GB SSD in Singapore...

    for $5/month.

    and that's with such awesome network benchmarks as posted above.

    Other SG providers need to rethink their pricing, or in general, how do they even plan to exist from now on.

    rm_ said: Other SG providers need to rethink their pricing, or in general, how do they even plan to exist from now on.

    I would still prefer to pay a bit more to have proper APNIC IP (instead RIPE) but that's usually issue mostly for those who use vps for VPNs and similar services of course.

    Don't know where you got this IP, but it's not DO SG, it's something in Australia.

    DO Singapore is http://speedtest-sgp1.digitalocean.com/ as I posted above.
    If for someone it's too hard to convert a hostname to an IP, here, I'll do that for you:

    $ host speedtest-sgp1.digitalocean.com
speedtest-sgp1.digitalocean.com has address 128.199.255.139

    the node going explode with everyone testing it ROFL
