Datacenter proxies

Datacenter proxies are proxies for high-load scenarios and tasks. They are usually hosted in data centers and provide the highest speed and stability.

Datacenter proxies, like ISP proxies, are issued to one user only: no sharing, meaning no more than one user per address and no hidden sharing. The addresses are IPv4 and also support UDP.

How do they work?

Inside the order, you can find several important items and options. Let's review them:

You can purchase them on the Datacenter proxy page. There, you need to specify the Country, Rental period, and Quantity. If needed, you can enable Auto renew for automatic renewal.

After purchase, proxies start working within 1-2 minutes because the database needs to synchronize with the proxy server.

Pros and cons of Datacenter proxies

Pros:

• High speed

Achieved by hosting addresses in large data centers, where 10 Gigabit broadband connectivity is possible. Ideal for high-load applications and tasks.

• Low cost

Compared with other products, they have a very low cost because of their large quantity and easy scalability.

• Ideal for many tasks

Suitable for all tasks that do not require masking as a real user. Such tasks may include website parsing, working with various exchanges, Facebook, Twitter, and other scenarios where there is no strict policy regarding address origin.

Cons:

• Easy detectability

These proxies may not be suitable for some tasks where DC addresses are filtered, for example DePIN projects. Such projects filter out these addresses at an early stage. For these cases, only ISP / Mobile / Residential proxies are suitable.

These drawbacks are covered by ISP proxies.
