AsiaGB has 19 years of hosting experience (since 2007) and provides services on two different OVHcloud data centers: Singapore and Oregon. This article compares both data centers in terms of location, latency, and pricing to help you choose the right region for your website's target audience.
1. How Are AsiaGB's 2 International Servers on OVHcloud Different?
AsiaGB offers international hosting services through OVHcloud, Europe's largest cloud service provider, founded in 1999 and operating more than 40 data centers worldwide. OVHcloud stands out for building its own servers, developing its own water cooling systems, and managing its own backbone network.
AsiaGB has international servers on OVHcloud in 2 regions: Singapore, which has been in service since 2016, and Oregon, United States, which was migrated from DigitalOcean's New York data center on July 17, 2026. Both data centers share the same basic features: DirectAdmin as the control panel, SSD only, free Let's Encrypt SSL, automatic backups 2 times per month (on the 1st and 15th), and 99% SLA uptime.
The main differences between the two lie in geographic location, connection speed (latency), and pricing models, which will impact choosing the right fit for your website's target audience.
2. Latency Comparison from Thailand and from Your Primary Target Audience
Connection speed (latency) is the first critical factor that website administrators must consider, as it directly impacts user experience. Users in Thailand connecting to Singapore will experience speeds of approximately 30 to 50 milliseconds, which is very fast. Meanwhile, connecting to Oregon takes approximately 160 to 220 milliseconds, which is still acceptable but may feel noticeably slower if you need real-time responsiveness.
From an audience perspective, Singapore has advantages for visitors from Thailand and Southeast Asia, while Oregon is more beneficial if your primary target audience is in North America.
| Factor | Singapore (SGP) | Oregon (US-WEST-OR) |
|---|---|---|
| Latency from Thailand | 30-50 ms | 160-220 ms |
| In Service Since | 2016 | 2026 (Migrated from DigitalOcean NYC) |
| Best For | Visitors from ASEAN | Visitors from North America |
OVHcloud's Singapore and Oregon both have identical technical specifications (DirectAdmin, SSD, free SSL, 99% Uptime). The differences lie only in data center location and connection speed from each region.
3. When to Choose Singapore: For Targeting the ASEAN Market
If your primary target audience is users in Thailand and Southeast Asia, Singapore is the best choice because it offers the lowest latency, providing the best user experience. OVHcloud's Singapore data center has been in service since 2016, so it has proven stability and extensive experience.
If your website is an e-commerce site, blog, membership system, or business management website that requires fast response times from viewers in ASEAN, Singapore is the primary recommended choice.
4. When to Choose Oregon: For Targeting the North American Market
When your website's target audience is in North America, Oregon is the best choice. OVHcloud's Oregon data center is located in Hillsboro, a suburb of Portland, Oregon, United States. AsiaGB migrated its data center from New York (DigitalOcean) to Oregon (OVHcloud) on July 17, 2026 for better performance and stability.
Oregon offers clear annual pricing that is easy to access, starting at just 500 baht per year. If you have a limited budget and want good value for money, Oregon is an excellent choice. Although it has higher latency than Singapore, 160-220 milliseconds is still acceptable for typical websites.
5. Pricing and Specs Side-by-Side Comparison
Both Singapore and Oregon offer 3 hosting plans to choose from based on your needs. Singapore has the SG Starter plan (5 GB SSD, 1 domain), SG 5 (10 GB SSD, 3 domains), and SG 10 (20 GB SSD, unlimited domains). Oregon offers pricing plans at 500 baht per year (5 GB SSD), 800 baht per year (10 GB SSD), and 1,200 baht per year (15 GB SSD).
An important difference is that Singapore has a separate pricing system from Oregon, with Singapore pricing details available on the purchase page, while Oregon has clearly specified annual pricing by plan. Both data centers have all the same support features: DirectAdmin, free SSL, backups 2 times per month, and 99% SLA uptime.
| Singapore | Oregon | |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Plan | SG Starter: 5 GB SSD, 1 domain | 500 baht/year: 5 GB SSD |
| Mid-Tier Plan | SG 5: 10 GB SSD, 3 domains | 800 baht/year: 10 GB SSD |
| Top-Tier Plan | SG 10: 20 GB SSD, unlimited domains | 1,200 baht/year: 15 GB SSD |
