JSAPI in China

[John B. Seals]

Greetings:

We are getting lots of reports about ajax.googleapis.com/jsapi being extremely slow or even blocked for our customers in China. Due to the nature of the JSAPI this is not something we can fix by hosting the file locally. Doing so not only violates Google's terms of service but since the JSAPI itself makes calls to google.com hosting it locally does not solve our problem.

How is everybody handling this? Or does anyone know of a solution? Can't seem to find anything online that would allow us to say point to a different location for Chinese customers.

Thanks . . .

A couple of thoughts on this. First, the JSAPI loader has not been maintained for some time. I would strongly recommend moving away from it. You can find the direct URLs for the various services and libraries in the relevant documentation.

Neglected to include the second thought. Second, depending on which services or libraries you're utilizing, you may want to consider a migration path away from Google altogether. The AJAX Search APIs are being shuttered. The Feeds API's TOS indicate that it may be discontinued, with or without warning, any time after April 2015. Etc.
