Hong Kong Tseung Kwan O Data Center is the largest network POP access point in the Asia-pacific region. It can provide high quality BGP network access and has t-level defense access. It is an ideal node access point. Welcome to have the demand of friends can find me
It looks good overall. Nice location. Yes, vote from me. Good luck!
Very good. I think it’s reliable
Good network. Good luck
A datacenter for a node is not a good idea.
Anwer pls - is ur node equipment rent on DC or U just colocate ur own hardware? And what hardware do u planning to use for?

Datacenter isn’t acceptable
Great location, but be sure to run with a GPU

Hi. May i ask why datacenter is not a good idea? Better uptime, better network, better hardware, etc…
Follow the last discussion in #node-application-process
I think the same as you do. The argument is premature
