Why Data Gathering needs residential proxies
Sources Detect Datacenter IPs
Most public sites that matter for data engineering — marketplaces, directories, news, social — block datacenter traffic on sight. Sustained ingestion requires residential IPs.
Geo-Diverse Data at Scale
Real-world datasets need coverage across regions and languages. Single-region scrapers miss 80% of the global picture; multi-region residential pools fill the gaps.
High-Volume Sustained Throughput
Modern data pipelines pull millions to billions of records per day. Datacenter pools throttle quickly under that load; residential pools absorb it without anomaly detection.
Structured Output for ETL
Raw HTML is the start; downstream pipelines need clean structured records. Workflows benefit from JSON output, webhook delivery, and predictable schemas.
How Shifter powers Data Gathering
Real-world applications of residential proxies in Data Gathering.
Web Crawling at Scale
Crawl entire site graphs — sitemap-driven, link-graph-driven, or paginated — across thousands of sources. Power category indexes, news archives, and research datasets.
Structured Data Extraction
Extract structured records (products, profiles, listings, prices) from semi-structured HTML using your own parsers. Shifter residential proxies handle the fetching layer; your pipeline owns the extraction.
Multi-Source Aggregation
Aggregate across heterogeneous sources — marketplaces, directories, news, social, registries — with one consistent infrastructure. Power data products that span the open web.
Real-Time Data Feeds
Run continuous-refresh pipelines that turn the open web into a real-time data feed. Power dashboards, alerts, and ML training pipelines that depend on freshness.
Geographic Coverage
Pull data from 195+ countries with city-level geo-targeting. Critical for multilingual datasets, region-specific content, and globally-balanced training data.
Webhook & Async Delivery
Submit batch jobs and receive results via webhook for async pipelines. Combine with cloud storage destinations (S3, GCS) for hands-off ingestion at any scale.
Simple, transparent pricing
Fixed monthly plans with included bandwidth. No hidden fees. Scale as your usage grows.

Frequently asked FAQ questions
Common questions about proxies for Data Gathering.
Web Scraping is the action — fetching one page, extracting one record. Data Gathering is the pipeline: continuous, multi-source, structured ingestion at scale. Most data-engineering teams build their pipelines on top of Shifter residential proxies.
