Melbicom UAE Fujairah Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 High-Performance Cloud VPS Test and Review
This time, we will test the Melbicom UAE Fujairah High-Performance Cloud Linux VPS Server. This machine runs on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8160 CPU @ 2.10GHz Processor and comes packed with 2 CPU cores, 4 GB of RAM, 40 GB of SSD storage, a 1 Gbps internet connection, 4 TB of bandwidth.
In our review, we’re doing many tests to see how good this server is. We’ll start with the Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark to see how it performs on the basics. Then, we’re going big with the Global Node Test to check out its network capabilities and the Global Ping Test to measure how quickly it responds.
We will also see if it can stream media smoothly with the Media Unlock Test, check connection quality with the CloudFlare Internet Test, and judge web performance with tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix Performance.
