Residential and datacenter proxies in South Asia
They solve different problems. Most teams end up with both.
Residential
Use residential IPs when a public site treats datacenter ranges differently and you are allowed to view the page as a normal visitor.
Datacenter
Use datacenter IPs when speed and price matter more than the network type. Monitoring and automation usually land here.
A practical split
Many teams run datacenter for bulk public reads and residential for a smaller set of location checks in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan.
