The network is developing faster and faster. When we don't want to learn network bandwidth knowledge, 5G has quietly arrived. 5G represents low latency, high network speed, and large bandwidth infrastructure is the carrier of 5G. Therefore, in recent years, large bandwidth network servers will be the direction of future development, because the speed of Internet access must be faster, and the bandwidth of website servers must keep up. However, many businesses may not realize what this server has brought to us. Today, let's briefly introduce it to you.
1、 Introduction to network bandwidth
Network bandwidth refers to the amount of data that can be transmitted in a unit time (generally 1 second). It is not only an important basis for governments or units to formulate network communication development strategies, but also one of the main factors for Internet users and units to choose Internet access service providers.
Because of the uncertainty of broadband speed measurement, the ideal broadband speed measurement should choose local speed measurement. Generally, we can use the broadband test method provided by the local broadband operator to measure speed. Because the operator's own installation test is basically carried out with its own test server, the accuracy will be much higher! For more remote areas or areas far away from the backbone network, you can only use remote speed measurement.
2、 What are the advantages of large bandwidth network servers?
1. Reduce website loading speed
The website loading speed can increase the user experience, and the large bandwidth server can make the website visit faster. As an important hardware configuration of the server, bandwidth has a direct impact on website access speed. A large bandwidth server is the cornerstone to ensure website access speed. Therefore, the larger the bandwidth, the more favorable the website access speed will be.
2. Make the website more stable
For example, if there is not enough bandwidth resources for the small video of dithering, which belongs to Byte Beating, during the peak period of network access, and if the dithering is very slow, very jammed, or even the server system resources crash, which causes the website's indirectness to fail to open, are there still so many users paying attention to it? So a large bandwidth server can effectively improve the stability of video websites such as dithering.
Moreover, the long-term instability of the website will not only affect the normal crawling of search engines, but also lead to the loss of potential customers of the website. Therefore, in order to pursue fast access and high stability of the website, large bandwidth servers are our first choice.
3. Large bandwidth increases website defense capability
For example, social networking sites have high requirements for data security, and user information leakage will inevitably lead to permanent loss of users. For such websites, many webmasters will choose servers with defense capabilities. High defense servers are inseparable from large bandwidth. In other words, large bandwidth is an important guarantee for high defense servers against attacks. Large bandwidth is the basis for responding to large traffic attacks such as DDoS and CC, so most high defense servers are now defending against large traffic attacks, and large bandwidth must be used as a support to resist large traffic attacks.
4. Meet diversified website construction needs
Now there are many types of website construction, and the scale is relatively large, especially e-commerce, video, download and other websites that require high bandwidth traffic. After all, these websites are mainly composed of pictures, videos and resource elements, which consume bandwidth and traffic resources very much. Therefore, renting a large bandwidth server is a good choice.
Having learned the advantages of so many network bandwidth servers, do you know how to test the network bandwidth? Bandwidth testing is a complicated process. Here is a brief introduction to the network bandwidth testing method.
3、 Test method of network bandwidth
Generally, servers at high-end points have large bandwidth, but in the market, service providers may cheat on bandwidth, especially in terms of network stability and bandwidth sharing and exclusivity. Therefore, users should conduct bandwidth testing before renting servers with large bandwidth in Hong Kong. After all, only testing can truly understand the real situation of the network. Let's introduce several methods of server bandwidth testing in detail. In order to ensure the stability of the server, the test needs to be carried out in different time periods.
1. Download test method
The download test method is mainly to place a large file on the American server, and then test the download speed and stability of bandwidth through the download method. This method is applicable, especially for users who need large bandwidth support, such as building download websites or online videos. However, this method usually requires the cooperation of the service provider. Generally, the bandwidth download speed of 1Mbps is between 100K and 150K/S.
2Mbps is 200-280K/S; 4Mbps is 400K-500K/S; 8Mbps is 800-950K/S; 10Mbps optical fiber sharing can reach 1M-1.5M/s. Note: (theoretical download speed of 1Mbps broadband is 128K/s, theoretical download speed of 2Mbps broadband is 256K/s, and theoretical download speed of 4Mbps is 512K/s)
2. Use Ping to test the network speed
This is the most commonly used method to test the network when hosting American servers. You can ping the IP address provided by the service provider to test the current situation of the network. However, it should be noted that this method is only an estimate of the bandwidth, rather than an intuitive representation of the numerical value. This method is the most important to test the stability of the access speed of the bandwidth American servers.
3. Use the test website
As long as you search the search engine, you will find that there are many website platforms on the network that provide network speed testing. They use network speed testing websites to test network speed, which is the most commonly used method for Internet users to test network speed. Users choose test routes according to the use of the network, and the test points are all over the country, the United States, Australia, Japan and other overseas countries, Users can choose any test point for testing. The website uses flash to realize speed measurement function and visual test process. The test results can accurately reflect the local network speed. There is no need to download and install plug-ins or add additional equipment. It is simple to use and convenient to operate.
4. Use route tracking
The common route tracing command lines are Tracert and winmtr on Windows, traceroute and mtr on Linux, and winmtr on Windows is simple to use with a gui.
Today, with the continuous development of 5G scale, its bandwidth requirements will be higher. However, large bandwidth servers can meet the needs of various large-scale websites in terms of access speed, stability, security and user experience, so they are very popular in the industry.
