US West Network Facts

Reference Latency to North America West Coast: 25~35 ms

This figure provides an initial estimate of the interactive distance between North America West Coast and US West nodes, based on the average range from multiple network tests. It helps assess SSH command response, VNC interaction, and repository download performance, but is not a fixed guarantee for any single carrier or office network.

Actual latency is affected by local carrier routing, interconnection paths, Wi-Fi quality, endpoint network load, and transmission time. For long-running build tasks, run sustained ping, traceroute, and repository download tests from your usual office network before choosing VNC quality, concurrent download limits, and caching policies.

  • For interactive development, check latency variation rather than only the single lowest result.
  • CI/CD tasks should measure repository checkout, dependency download, and artifact upload times together.
  • For large-file transfers, use tools with verification and resume support, and avoid periods of high local network load.

Provisioning Process

From Order Confirmation to Your First Build: Typically About 4 Minutes

The system completes payment confirmation, node assignment, health checks, and delivery of connection details in sequence. Each step provides a clear result, so there is no need to assemble the environment manually.

  1. 01

    Confirm Configuration & Payment

    About 1 minute

    Choose a model and rental period—daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly—and review storage expansion and Thunderbolt 5 parallel-connection requirements. After payment is confirmed, the order enters node assignment.

  2. 02

    Assign a Dedicated Physical Node

    About 1 minute

    The system maps the order to an independent Mac mini. Its CPU, memory, and local storage are not shared with other tenants; actual availability is shown in real time by the control panel.

  3. 03

    Run System & Network Checks

    About 1 minute

    The platform checks system boot status, disk write access, network connectivity, and remote access services. Only after the checks pass does the process move to connection-detail delivery.

  4. 04

    Receive Credentials & Verify the Toolchain

    About 1 minute

    Once the connection details arrive, update the temporary password and verify the SSH host fingerprint first. Then use the GUI or command line to confirm that macOS, Xcode, and the build directory are ready.

≈ 4 minutes Typical Total Provisioning Time

Complex orders or payment confirmation speed may affect the actual time; the final status is shown in the control panel.

Node FAQ

Three Common Questions Before Renting a US West Node

Focus on node selection, latency assessment, and workload migration to help you confirm whether this setup fits your workload before payment.

Which North America West Coast workloads are US West nodes suitable for?

They are suitable for Xcode builds, automated testing, code signing, self-hosted runners, remote development, and Apple Silicon tool compatibility testing that require a macOS GUI or command line. If your work depends heavily on frequent graphical interaction, test VNC first from your everyday office network. For unattended builds, focus on transfer times for repositories, dependency sources, and artifact storage.

Does 25~35 ms mean every connection to US West has the same latency?

No. 25~35 ms is the average latency range from multiple tests for North America West Coast, intended for initial region screening. Results vary by carrier, office network, access time, and inter-network routing. Before a production migration, continuously test latency, jitter, packet loss, and repository transfer speed from the actual usage location, then choose graphics quality and concurrent-task settings.

Can I move my existing CI pipeline to US West immediately after ordering?

Migrate in stages. First, pin the Xcode and command-line tool versions on the new node, then install the repository runner, restore dependency caching, and import build materials with sensitive data removed and permissions minimized. Run a non-release validation pipeline and compare test results, archived artifacts, and execution time. Once validated, switch production tasks over gradually to avoid expanding the troubleshooting scope all at once.
