Where does PlayFab host its servers?

Hello,

Im curious to know where you guys host your servers? Are my PlayFab calls going to be as fast in Russia and Australia as the USA?

Thanks!

The PlayFab core services are hosted in multiple availability zones in US West regions in AWS. Since all those calls are Web API methods, an additional 100-200ms shouldn't be an issue. For custom game server hosting, we can host in many regions - the Servers->Builds tab shows the list when you have a build uploaded. That way, you can have the servers needing low latency available in or near regions where you have players. And finally, for CDN we use CloudFront, so the content is being delivered from the closest AWS CDN node to the user.

Also, for enterprise customers looking to have a private instance of PlayFab, we can also host that in whichever AWS region you require.
