你好 Shanghai, our engineers have worked hard to deploy our infrastructure on the mainland, and we’re thrilled to serve games close to the 26 million people living in Shanghai.
Hej Nordics
Oslo, Stockholm, and Copenhagen have joined the i3D.net party this year. While building our new Points of Presence, we always measure the real-world latency of connectivity links to ensure it stays as low as possible. Especially on the Oslo-Amsterdam route, we managed to pull some mind-blowing numbers, bringing the latency down to 14.5ms round-trip, 53% lower than other connectivity providers.
How do we do this, you may ask? We don’t go for the cheapest routes; we optimize our entire network for latency. So, cutting corners by jumping on submarine cables brings benefits, with less zigzagging between buildings, roads, and railways. COVID taught us to avoid crowded places.
Back land-inwards
Milan is our latest server PoP in Europe. We have also added Zurich and Bucharest as network PoPs, connecting Central Europe to its end-users while deploying compute resources in new areas.
Hola Latin America
Santiago and Buenos Aires have opened alongside one of our first-ever Points of Presence in Sao Paulo. By doing so, we can reach a more significant proportion of users in South America with a latency more suitable for gaming and video calling.
The United States of America
We’ve expanded our PoPs in the United States with Atlanta to better serve the south-east. Furthermore, we’ve upgraded Newark, once a network PoP to a full-blown build, delivering compute-resources to ensure applications run as close to the end-users in the north-east.
Upgrades
Existing PoPs such as Hong Kong, Newark, Tokyo, Sao Paulo, Chicago, Ashburn, Singapore, Madrid, and Los Angeles, among others, have received extensive upgrades throughout 2021. Bigger routers, more compute resources, new connections ensure we maintain low latency while scaling up for our customers.
