For HTTP proxy users, if cost considerations are excluded, everyone prefers to use a dedicated IP. So among the products of a number of HTTP proxy manufacturers, how can we distinguish what kind of dedicated IP is? Today, Kookeey HTTP Proxy will take you to understand the mystery.
How to identify dedicated IP? This starts with the classification of HTTP proxies.
From the perspective of usage and resource sharing, HTTP proxies can be divided into shared HTTP proxies, exclusive HTTP proxies, and tunnel HTTP proxies.
Shared proxy IP and exclusive proxy IP are classified.
Shared proxy IP is a proxy IP that allows multiple users to use it together. In this case, multiple users share the same set of proxy IP addresses, which means that multiple users may use the same proxy IP address at the same time. Therefore, the stability is not as good as that of an exclusive proxy IP, and the bandwidth will also be affected to a certain extent. Therefore, compared with the two, shared proxy IP is cheaper.
Exclusive proxy IP means that you are the only one who uses this proxy IP and you do not share the same proxy IP with others. First of all, exclusive proxy IPs do exist. Even the pure IPs that e-commerce often emphasizes do exist. However, usually this kind of exclusive proxy IP pool will have a higher availability rate, more stable performance, and a higher bandwidth than the shared one, but it will be more expensive than the shared proxy.
How do we determine whether this resource pool is exclusive?
Price: As mentioned before, the price for shared use will be more favorable than that for exclusive use.
For example, our kookeey also uses dynamic proxy IP, but there is a certain difference in the price between shared proxy IP and exclusive proxy IP:
Shared Proxy IP vs Dedicated Proxy IP
Performance: Due to the limitation of the number of users, exclusive proxy IP is more stable and reliable than shared proxy IP. This is also the same as shared proxy. The more people use shared proxy, the worse the performance, the more unstable it is, and it is even hard to say whether you can log in. This is also the biggest reason why we do not recommend using free public resources.
The number of people using the same proxy IP depends on how many people the proxy IP service provider allocates this proxy IP resource to. For example, if the proxy IP is shared, the number of users is strictly controlled.
Consultation: If you really cannot confirm whether it is shared or exclusive, you can consult the manufacturer's customer service, who can basically answer your questions.
If you see this, will you have a doubt, is it better for all our businesses to use exclusive proxy IP?
Not necessarily. We can comprehensively evaluate whether to use shared or exclusive proxy based on our own usage scenarios and project budget. For example, shared proxy is universal, while exclusive proxy IP is suitable for business needs that require high performance and security, such as data collection, privacy protection, penetration testing, etc. with specific requirements.
