Meet the new nodes!

One of the most important sources of PerfOps data is synthetic benchmarking. Authoritative DNS providers, public DNS resolvers and Cloud providers are tested every minute from more than 250 locations around the world. The data is collected and processed round the clock, for several years now.

And that is obvious, the more test servers in different locations we have - the more accurate and valuable our results are. That’s why we increase the number and areas of our ‘benchmark nodes’ all the time. In answering to several clients request, as well as in alignment with our goal to increase coverage in LATAM / ASIA, we have added new nodes (17 in total) for the following regions:

South and Central America:

  • Chile (Santiago and Curicó)
  • Colombia (Bogotá)
  • Brazil (Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo)
  • Argentina (Buenos Aires)  2 nodes
  • Peru (Lima)
  • Ecuador (Quito)
  • Costa Rica (San José)

Africa:

  • Tunisia (Tunis)

Asia:

  • Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City)
  • Thailand (Bangkok)
  • Saudi Arabia (Riyadh)
  • Turkey (Istanbul)
  • Kazakhstan (Almaty)
  • Philippines (Makati)

We will continue to add new servers to expand the representativeness of our tests.
