Singapore Linodes are now available!

We’re very excited to announce the opening of our newest datacenter in Singapore! This marks Linode’s seventh datacenter, and is purpose-built to serve the already huge and growing markets in Southeast Asia, India, Australia, and surrounding regions.

We’ve spent the majority of the past few months working on getting great connectivity to the Internet. Our Singapore network is powered by Cisco ASR 9000-series routers, and currently blends transit from Telstra/Pacnet and PCCW, along with direct peering into the Equinix Internet Exchange (EIE) – providing us with access to hundreds of peering opportunities. Check out our Speedtest page to test latency and download speeds.

Singapore supports all of the standard Linode features available in all of our datacenters – like 40 Gbps redundant connectivity to each hypervisor host machine, the Linode Backup service, NodeBalancers, native IPv6, etc – and is the same simple pricing as our other datacenters. Try Singapore now!

We’re also hard at work on other great news. Stay tuned!

Enjoy!

    No direct peer to China Telecom and China Unicom, same as DigitalOcean.
    However at this pricing level, it is impossible to get 2TB/mo in SG if linked to CT and CU…
    Chinese users might still consider Tokyo instead.

    Unfortunately whoever did their homework on this one failed. Choosing this location from Australia (Mel, Syd, SA and Bris) typical traceroute latency is approx 270ms.

    Latency to West Coast USA (LA) from Australia is typically 190ms.

    Fantastic – back on April 23rd I was getting ~ 250ms pings to speedtest.singapore.linode.com via Telstra in brisbane, but now I am getting a pretty consistent 140ms – nice work!

    The speed is pretty good and is expected when using PCCW as your upstream. I see a latency of 35-38ms from Hong Kong using business lines of HGC. However, I noticed traceroute to Linode Singapore mainly goes through Pacnet which is considered congested inside Asia. I recommend tuning your routes to give a better experiences to your customers.

    Unfortunately, the RTT to a Singapore linode from Sydney via TPG (fluctuating between 300ms and 400ms with some packet loss) is worse than the RTT to a London linode from Sydney (consistent 320ms).

    There’s also a fluctuating 60ms-160ms RTT between the Singapore linode and its default gateway.

    Hi, I am no expert, just a user and I love using Linode. But look at what I’ve found! You can’t really take the speedtest server at face value….

    Besides ping, you have to use tracert to see at which nodes are slowing down your linode server in singapore to the internet.

    Here’s what I do:
    1. I shifted my linode to Singapore DC.
    2. Using the one of fastest broadband subscriptions (500mbps) from singapore isp, i ping from my client machine in Singapore to Linode Singapore DC:

    WHY there is such a huge difference in time between ping the speedtest Singapore linode server and my actual linode server that is now in Linode Singapore DC?

    At first I thought it might be my OS causing the delay. But I’ve striped my server to its bare to respond very fast to network request. So, here’s what I did: I just do a simple tracert and viola! the answer is there.

    4. ANALYSIS.
    From the 2 tracert tests, you can see that everything is the same until my 12 hops. ip-61-14-147-179.asianetcom.net to the speedtest server returns a super fast 4ms while ip-61-14-147-177.asianetcom.net to the actual linode returns 190ms. 47 to 48 times slower! Which means even though the Singapore speedtest server and the actual linode server are on Linode Singapore DC, they are placed on different networks (1 fast and the other much slower!). Linode, can you accept that?

    As a user, I felt misled and sad. Assuming my test is right, this is a quality issue and Linode should rectify this with it’s Singapore service provider or network team asap. I hope Linode can rectify this issue soon as this is not the kind of quality we’ve bought into.

    PS: You can buy me tea some time after you have corrected this. 🙂

    Thanks!

    We have had a lot of requests for hosting apps/data in Asia, specifically in Singapore in some cases.

    Your dedication to providing international hosting options like this one in Singapore is one of the reasons we built a custom Linode adapter for our web development platform: https://news.nanobox.io/linode-now-supported/
