Thanks John for the clarification
China implements both technical and legislative controls over internet traffic including blocking or slowing down access to resources outside the country.
Users attempting to access global resources, including IFS Cloud Services, via a restricted network may encounter a range of issues including poor application response times
IFS currently has no plans to offer services from within China and cannot recommend or endorse any particular customer connectivity strategy.
IFS has, however, worked in collaboration with Microsoft to understand the technical issues and challenges, and should an individual customer use case prove to be problematic there are several potential approaches and 3rd party solutions which may help. Two examples of 3rd party connectivity services which IFS believes will work with IFS’ cloud services are Expereo China Premium Internet – a managed internet access service - and Teridion – a VPN-based solution utilizing a customer’s existing internet connection.
