China traffic notes

  • China connectivity depends heavily on ISP and time-of-day. Treat “best” claims as probabilistic.
  • Measure TTFB, TLS handshake, and packet loss — not just ping.
  • For stability: put a CDN in front, cache aggressively, and keep a fallback region.

Pricing pointer

  • Pricing changes frequently (promos, subscription vs pay-as-you-go).
  • Start from provider review: AWS review

Deployment checklist

  1. Start small; scale after measurement.
  2. Automate provisioning (cloud-init / Ansible / Terraform).
  3. CDN + compression + caching headers.
  4. Monitor probes (CN + local region).
  5. Track TTFB / TLS / loss weekly; iterate.
