Melbicom India Mumbai Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 Cloud Linux KVM VPS Test and Review
Thanks to the Melbicom Team for inviting us to test the India Mumbai Cloud Linux KVM VPS (Plan: KVM-8-BOM). We recently evaluated the server, which is powered by an Intel® Xeon® Platinum 8160 Processor and features the following configuration: 8 CPU cores, 16 GB RAM, 160 GB SSD Storage, 1 Gbps Internet Port, Unmetered Traffic (with throughput reduced to 10 Mbit/s after exceeding a monthly quota of 5TB), and 1 IPv4 address.
Our review includes various tests: the Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark for performance metrics, the Global Node Test for different location network speeds, and the Global Ping Test for latency measurement. We also use The Media Unlock Test for media accessibility, the CloudFlare Internet Test for connection quality, and web performance evaluations via PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.
