How do I get access to Bright Data’s Fast SERP?

Access to fast SERP is available through your account manager. Reach out to them at sales@brightdata.com to see if your account qualifies.

​
How fast is Fast SERP?

Fast SERP responds at least twice as fast than our full regular SERP, with P(90) around 1 second. P(90) is the 90th percentile meaning 90% of the requests.

​
Which Google searches are supported under Fast SERP?

Fast SERP supports multiple search verticals. See the relevant page for that search type. Supported verticals:
  1. Web Search
  2. News
  3. Shopping
  4. Images
  5. Maps

​
What volume in QPS (queries per second) is supported?

Bright Data’s can support high volume SERP traffic from hundreds to thousands of QPS. Consider both your POC/testing volume and your expected production volume before getting started. This helps ensure your zone is configured correctly for your workload. If you’re unsure, start with an estimate, your account manager can adjust your rate allocation as your usage grows. If your usage fluctuates on short time spans (like sudden or planned high bursts, or sudden or planned zero traffic periods) - let us know so we can ensure level of service. For the fair use rate limit that applies to SERP API accounts, see SERP API fair use: rate limit.

​
Do I need to control or throttle traffic on my end?

If your system has internal rate-limiting or load control mechanisms, share those details with your account manager. This helps align your zone’s capacity with your infrastructure’s behavior and avoids unnecessary errors.

​
Should I use the native proxy interface or the REST API?

Fast SERP works best with the native proxy interface, it is slightly faster than the REST API. A REST API interface can be provided if required by your architecture.

​
Which geographic region will my scrapers run from?

Fast SERP supports multiple deployment regions: US East, US West, EU, and APAC. Knowing your scraper region(s) in advance helps optimize routing and latency. If your production traffic is distributed across multiple regions, let your account manager know.
