Only about 1/3 of china can reach you if you are on Amazon, and if you get assigned an IP that was previously used by a blocked service no one will reach you.
Also be aware that there are days even weeks when parts of China blocks most of the US. If your business model depends on China you need servers there.

One micro linux instance with Apatch is enough for me, the average requests/sec of my site is about 10-15. You can scale up on EC2 easily I believe, though the daily peak CPU usage of my proxy is only about 20% for now. HTH, Will On Wed, Nov 23, 2011 at 11:25 PM, Albert <[email protected]> wrote: Hi! I have some questions regarding setting up a reverse proxy to serve users in China. 1. Can I setup the reverse proxy such that it is only used when a visitor is coming from China? 2. If the answer to above is "yes", how do I do that? 3. Do I also have to scale up the reverse proxy if I get many visitors from china? How many requests can an average single reverse proxy serve? I would greatly appreciate any answers from anyone, especially from someone who has is also doing this.
