如何选择托管国家/地区

因为我们提供托管服务 18 国家, 我们现在经常被问到:

我应该选择哪个国家/地区作为我的托管服务器?…

虽然我们无法回答您的情况, 我们可以为您提供框架，让您自己找到答案.

今天需要了解三个重要因素:

• everything is about speed ;
• 隐私法 ;
• 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 顾客

It gets tricky for some people because their business is global. In this case your customers are everywhere in the world. In any case: 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. 然而: 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, 等). Brazil on the other hand might have political risks. In our view the safest location in terms of risk is:

爱尔兰

And the most risky location is:

日本

Regarding 隐私法: some countries do not allow data to be exported out of their jurisdiction. 例如: for business in the EU it is required to be hosted in the EU (and that include backups).
