Asia.Cloud was founded in 2016 and provides Hong Kong VPS (Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization) based on Hong Kong Tier 3+ data centers. It offers three-network BGP direct routing, with telecom using CN2-GIA and international large bandwidth. The servers use SSD hard drives and offer a choice of Linux and Windows systems. Ordering is self-service and supports Paypal and Alipay.
The official website of Asia.Cloud is https://asia.cloud/cn/china-route-plans.php. Currently, they offer discounts for new users: 60% off for annual payment, 80% off for quarterly payment, and 90% off for monthly payment.
Below are the details of their VPS plans optimized for mainland China:
CPU | Memory | Hard Disk | Traffic | Bandwidth | Annual Price (USD/month) | Purchase Link |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 core | 512MB | 20G | 1T | 10M | 10.2 | Click to purchase |
1 core | 1G | 30G | 2T | 10M | 13.2 | Click to purchase |
2 cores | 2G | 40G | 3T | 10M | 20.4 | Click to purchase |
The basic test results show that the CPU used is "E5-2620 v4 @ 2.10GHz" with an average I/O speed of "1228.8 MB/s". The download speed is close to Gbps, while the upload speed is limited to "10Mbps".
The routing from Sichuan Telecom to Guangdong exits through CN2 route, as shown in the diagram. The average latency within China is around "42ms".
In summary, Asia.Cloud has good disk I/O and routing, but limited bandwidth and traffic, and the prices are relatively high. It is recommended to regularly backup data regardless of which provider you choose.
