CloudProxy is a self-hosted Python tool that provisions and manages proxy servers across multiple cloud providers, rotating IPs to improve web scraping success rates. It exposes a web interface and API for managing the proxy pool and supports rolling deployments and multi-account provider setups.

Use cases

  • rotate IPs automatically for web scraping
  • provision cheap proxy servers across cloud providers
  • avoid getting my scraper's IP blocked
  • manage a pool of self-hosted proxies via an API
  • replace paid rotating proxy services with cloud VMs
  • spin up and destroy proxy instances on a schedule

When to choose

  • you need many rotating IPs for scraping at scale
  • you want cheaper alternatives to commercial proxy providers
  • you prefer self-hosted infrastructure you control
  • you use multiple cloud provider accounts and want unified proxy management

When to avoid

  • you need residential or mobile IPs, not datacenter IPs
  • you only need a handful of static proxies
  • you don't want to manage cloud provider accounts and billing
  • your target sites block datacenter IP ranges outright
