These reports offer insights into service availability patterns, performance trends, and latency characteristics across multiple cloud providers and regions. Each report includes time-bound analysis spanning from 1 day to 1 year, with customizable views, bookmarking, and URL-based sharing for collaborative analysis.
Dashboards
Detailed summaries of performance and availability featuring time series graphs, latency distribution charts, and summary metrics for cloud service control and data plane operations, and network performance.
Latency Matrices
Summarized statistical analysis providing median, mean, and percentile performance metrics in matrix format offering comparative views of latency and availability across services, regions, and time periods.
Tests Covered
Networking / Last Mile
Cloud Looking Glass serves as a RIPE Atlas anchor host, providing test credits to orchestrate network testing from last-mile sources worldwide. Edge services like Alibaba Cloud CDN are distributed by design, making it essential to measure performance from diverse geographic locations. Our last-mile testing leverages RIPE Atlas probes located in residential and business networks globally, providing real-world connectivity insights. This approach captures the true end-user experience by testing from actual ISP networks rather than data center locations, revealing routing inefficiencies, peering issues, and regional performance variations that impact service quality.
Regional Coverage
Networking / Synthetic
Synthetic monitoring complements last-mile testing by measuring Alibaba Cloud CDN availability and performance from data center locations. While these tests don't capture end-user experience, they provide consistent baseline measurements from well-connected infrastructure. By testing from cloud service origins across multiple providers and regions, we can detect service outages, routing changes, and inter-provider connectivity issues. These data center vantage points offer stable, high-bandwidth connections that help isolate service-side issues from last-mile network variability.
Synthetic Test Origins
AWS EC2 us-east-1 → Alibaba Cloud CDN / http
HTTP GET request to test web service availability. Validates that the HTTP service is responding correctly.
AWS EC2 us-east-1 → Alibaba Cloud CDN / tcping4
IPv4 TCP connection test. Validates IPv4 TCP port accessibility and connection establishment.
