# Speed & Ping Tests for Cloud Hosting Providers



## Notes



- Speed tests for ***each region of each provider*** (there are over 80) can use **up to 100MB of data**. Be careful if your ISP caps your data usage!

- Files are downloaded via HTTP (not HTTPS) to get pure speed without encryption overhead.

- Tests can always be influenced by outside variables. Run the scripts multiple times if you want to ensure accuracy. Evil throttling ISPs can mess up the results too, of course.

- If it looks like the script has crashed, the current test is probably just taking a while — especially when testing far-away regions. If you already know that testing other continents is futile, just remove them from the for loops in `speed.sh`.

- **Thank you to [CloudHarmony](https://cloudharmony.com/) for providing AWS and GCP endpoints for testing!**



## Usage



If you trust me (which you shouldn't, _please_ don't trust random people on the internet!) these commands will download and run the scripts automatically:



```

wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jakejarvis/datacenter-speed-tests/master/ping.sh | bash

wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jakejarvis/datacenter-speed-tests/master/speed.sh | bash

```



Or, clone the repository and make sure the scripts are executable before running:



```

git clone https://github.com/jakejarvis/datacenter-speed-tests.git

cd datacenter-speed-tests

chmod +x ping.sh && chmod +x speed.sh

./ping.sh

./speed.sh

```
