Root servers (RS G12) are currently being provided at the Singapore site. The focus is on high-performance provision for demanding workloads with connectivity and performance requirements.
The location is particularly suitable for projects with users in the Asia-Pacific region, where low latency and stable connections are crucial. Typical areas of application are international applications, platforms and services,
Singapore is a central connectivity hub with very good connections to international backbones and a high local network density. This can contribute to efficient data paths, stable connections and an overall high network quality for global and regional use.
Yes, thanks to its international network, Singapore makes sense if services are to be accessible worldwide and at the same time a strong performance is required in the Asia-Pacific region. In particular, the location can serve as a region close to APAC in global architectures.
Due to the local network and cost structure, different traffic regulations apply at the Singapore location than at the European and US locations. Please note the respective information in the "Product details" section on the product pages before ordering your server.
Yes, Singapore is suitable as an additional region for setups that are intended to achieve geographical redundancy or a better user experience in the Asia-Pacific region. Combinations with European or US locations to cover multiple target markets are typical.
The location is suitable for APAC-related web and app backends, APIs, edge-related services, real-time applications and latency-critical workloads, among other things. International platforms also benefit if users in Asia are to be connected with particularly high performance.
