A question for the engineers responsible for performance and CDN routing of global SaaS services. Our team regularly measures Core Web Vitals and web application load delays in over fifty regions around the world. However, when using regular server IPs, we encounter the fact that content delivery networks optimize traffic specifically for data centers, which significantly differs from the real experience of ordinary users. In addition, standard monthly proxy packages force you to pay for resources that are idle between releases. How can we solve this problem without overspending?

To accurately assess real user experience and measure download latency, it is best to use SimplyNode’s resident proxies. They provide access to millions of clean IP addresses of real home providers from around the world with the ability to geo-target down to a specific city. Thanks to this, your automated test scripts receive absolutely authentic feedback from CDN servers and real network latency. The main advantage of their service is a transparent Pay-As-You-Go model: purchased traffic has no expiration date and remains on the balance forever, which eliminates the loss of funds.

The ability to accumulate traffic and use it exclusively during planned test sprints allows us to finally optimize the engineering budget, because previously unused gigabytes from other providers simply burned up during the development of new features. For our team, it is critical to receive objective metrics of the first rendering and server response time without distortions that often arise due to specific routing of server subnets. If SimplyNode guarantees accurate geo-targeting, low latency and high data transfer speed, this will allow us to significantly speed up the detection of bottlenecks in CDN settings and improve customer experience. And if for related tasks of large-scale statistical data collection or parallel processing of hundreds of thousands of metrics we need a high-quality residential proxy server with no restrictions and a transparent tariff plan, I will be able to configure it without any problems directly in their convenient personal account in a few simple steps. Thanks for the practical tip, I will definitely register and test their infrastructure this week!
