More than ever, our business space is being shaped by data. Surely, the future of e-commerce will be shaped majorly by how well your organization can source and use quality data. Aside from helping you make smart decisions, it gives you an edge over the competition and promotes scalability.
In this blog post, we will dive deep into what proxies are while exploring their main features. We will also shed light on the differences between the multiple types of datacenter proxies available to you.
Proxies are computer software that stands between your local machine while sending out requests and the server that sends back what you are searching for. It operates as an intermediary that accepts the requests from your computer before transferring them to the target web server.
Proxies have both hardware and software components. The hardware either resides in a large corporate data center (in the cloud) or in selected residential homes.
Besides keeping you anonymous on the web by hiding your internet protocol (IP) address and location, they render forbidden geo-locations useless.
While dedicated datacenter proxies are often reserved for only a single user, shared datacenter proxies are made available to multiple users simultaneously. This could make the shared proxies inferior to private proxies in some use cases where a consistent connection needs to be sustained. However, if your goal requires very little need for it, then consider a shared datacenter proxy, as they are considerably cheaper. Click here for more information on shared proxies.
Your data gathering is more likely to be successful with a dedicated datacenter proxy. Because multiple users sharing the same IP might be trying to access the same server, which causes an apparent network overload from a single IP address. Although shared proxies are the cheapest option, this price tag could come at the risk of getting banned.
Shared datacenter proxies need to be used in countries with higher usage rates to cover the costs among multiple users. They become unprofitable in locations where only a few businesses request IP addresses. This makes the sample size of available countries to choose from small. This is unlike dedicated datacenter proxies, which are available in almost all UN-recognized countries.
You have read the technical differences between shared and dedicated datacenter proxies. However, as an entrepreneur who seeks to maximize profit while scaling your business, you should be yearning for where you can use these efficient tools. Here are some practical use cases that can help your business:
There are multiple tools available in a business. As an entrepreneur, you are faced with the unique task of selecting the best tool for a scenario. Proxies especially require special attention. They are the biggest investment you will make toward your data-gathering campaigns. You need the non-technical but comprehensive differences between these to make an informed decision.
