I believe DigitalOcean has a Singapore datacenter. I'm in need of a proxy node over near there for another project so I could throw ntpd on that. Still doesn't solve the monitoring issue in packet loss but it could at least reduce the load (125mbit uplink but 100 is the highest speed without going over.)
In regards to the monitoring side, can we either get an authenticated API platform or have a server in either Singapore or The Netherlands as an asia monitoring station (possibly even Europe?) Authenticated API would at least limit junk score inputs and provide an audit trail for whose monitor service botched the scoring and would almost completely eliminate direct cost to the project itself. Thoughts?
