In terms of performance, the Shenzhen node is also constantly updated, while the Heyuan node was built according to the most advanced technology.

Price: It is known from the above that Heyuan node has a higher cost performance ratio. However, Alibaba Cloud usually sells its servers at the original price, while the price of promotional activities is generally 30% or even as low as 0.9%. When we participate in AliCloud activities, we will find that the active server does not provide Heyuan region, only Shenzhen node. How you choose is up to you personally. The price of the active server in Shenzhen node after discount is much lower than that of the Heyuan node server.

Technology: Heyuan node technology is more advanced, and the financial level business needs to be delivered faster. Of course, our ordinary users cannot use these advanced technologies.
