TOPIC
Q: What are the
host names, IP address ranges and URLs used by the
Currency System managed service offering?
|
|
|
DISCUSSION
A: Currency System
managed services are provided via the
following endpoints:
- fx.currencysystem.com (primary
services)
- fx-backup.currencysystem.net (backup)
The load-balanced IP addresses are:
- 137.117.65.50/32 (primary IPv4, since March
2014)
- 138.91.188.248/32 (backup IPv4, since March
2014)
- 2603:1030:20e:3::1dc (primary IPv6,
testing from October 2023)
- 2a01:111:f100:3000::a83e:1ae8 (backup
IPv6, testing from October 2023)
File-based feeds are accessed via URLs
in the "fx.currencysystem.com/v5/?arguments"
format.
Web service URLs begin with
"fx.currencysystem.com/webservices/".
Client Apps
Currency System calculator and converter
apps access private static data hosted on
Windows Azure managed CDN nodes, which do
not have narrowly defined IP address ranges.
Backup Systems
Backup systems are always on live standby
using alternate geographic regions and DNS
providers, for automatic failover. They can
also be accessed directly under the
alternate host name and domain (fx-backup.currencysystem.net
instead of fx.currencysystem.com).
Legacy Support
Additional host names such as fx.cloanto.com
remain supported for legacy
application access. Feed and web service access URLs
are versioned to ensure long-term stability
and compatibility.
To update earlier
file-based URLs to access the latest
version 5 interface and data, replace
"fx.cloanto.com/rates.fx?<arguments>"
or "fx.currencysystem.com/rates-v<x>.fx?<arguments>"
(where <x> is a version
number) with "fx.currencysystem.com/v5/?<arguments>".
To update earlier
web service URLs to access the latest
version 5 interface, use the
"CurrencyServer5.asmx"
access point. "CurrencyServer4.asmx" and
other previous-version access points remain
available for legacy support. The
documentation ("Legacy Support", under
"Programming Interfaces") includes a
detailed list of changes between versions.
