Datacenter proxies

The datacenter network comprises of thousands of datacenter IPs across multiple countries and multiple subnets. You can choose to set up a zone on the datacenter network using the Shared or Reserved IP types:

Choosing the datacenter proxy network

When using the Shared IP type on the Datacenter network your requests are rotated through a random IP per-request. You can control the countries of the IP used either by specifying the countries explicitly when setting up the zone, or per-request using the country parameter in your zone username.

You can also use the session parameter to create a persistent session where all requests are routed through the same IP for the lifetime of the session. Learn more about sessions.

Shared datacenter zones support per-GB or per-connection billing methods.

Mobile proxies

The mobile network routes requests through 4G or 5G mobile devices in multiple countries.

Typically requests made via the mobile network have a higher trust score and are less likely to be blocked than those from the datacenter network.

Choosing the mobile proxy network

You can control the country of the mobile device used either by specifying the [countries](/zones/countries explicitly when setting up the zone, or per-request using the country parameter in your zone username. You can also use the session parameter to create a persistent session where all requests are routed through the same mobile device. Learn more about sessions.
