Ker nudimo gostovanje v 18 države, nas zdaj pogosto sprašujejo:

Katero državo naj izberem za svoje gostovanje?…

Čeprav za vaš primer ne moremo odgovoriti, lahko vam damo okvir, da boste sami našli odgovor.

Danes je treba razumeti tri pomembne dejavnike:

• everything is about speed ;
• zakoni o zasebnosti ;
• a country is associated with risks.

In general, our best answer is simply:

you have to pick the location which is the closest to your customers

It gets tricky for some people because their business is global. In this case your customers are everywhere in the world. V vsakem primeru: a majority of your customers should come from one country in particular, and it is this country (or the closest location to that country) that you need to pick. Vendar: since your customers are global, you need to alter your website and serve your static scripts using CDN (“Content Delivery Network”). This can only be done once by modifying some code (and it something we would do).

In terms of risks: Japan has obviously natural catastrophe risks (tsunamis, earthquakes, power outage, itd). Brazil on the other hand might have political risks. In our view the safest location in terms of risk is:

Irska

And the most risky location is:

Japonska

Regarding zakoni o zasebnosti: some countries do not allow data to be exported out of their jurisdiction. For example: for business in the EU it is required to be hosted in the EU (and that include backups).
