🟩Latest🟩RackSmart USA San Jose Silicon Valley "International BGP" Route Review
RakSmart Silicon Valley "International BGP" routing - how does it perform? Currently, RakSmart has significantly more international routing options compared to "Mainland Optimized", "Mainland Optimized VIP", "Premium Network", and "CN2 ONLY" lines. The core reason is that international routing has much lower bandwidth costs, allowing for bulk procurement, suitable for DDoS protection and serving customers with international traffic needs. High bandwidth, unlimited traffic, and low prices are irresistible temptations for many domestic users. But is this international BGP truly suitable for use in China's tri-carrier network environment? Is the speed really fast? To clarify these questions and help everyone save time and money, we obtained a dedicated server with 10Gbps bandwidth for detailed testing. The comprehensive test data is shared in this article for reference only.

US company, no real-name verification required, no ICP filing needed. Accepts cryptocurrency, credit cards, PayPal, and Alipay payments.
Note: For overseas servers, we recommend enabling BBR for Linux systems.
We tested a dual-socket dedicated server with CPU model 2*Intel Xeon Gold 6133 (40 cores, 80 threads, base frequency 2.5GHz, boost frequency 3.0GHz), BBR enabled, no IPv6, RakSmart's own ASN, located in San Jose, California, USA, with current I/O performance around 972MB/S:
FIO disk read/write test results are exceptionally impressive:
SpeedTest.net test data from some Asian nodes:
SpeedTest international node test data:
IPERF3 test data for common international nodes (Los Angeles node achieved 6.49Gbps uplink):
Streaming service unlock test results:
Dedicated server performance test data:
Summary:
For dedicated servers, performance isn't a major concern since you don't share resources with others.
Regarding network performance, this international BGP routing is primarily suitable for overseas markets. For domestic Chinese users, it would require CDN implementation to achieve optimal performance.
