[AusNOG] Au > South Africa Customer Link

[Mark Newton]

Have they considered relocating the application?

I don’t think you’ll find a low latency path between those two countries, so if the application is latency-sensitive it’s always going to suck.

But you might find two best-available paths between each country and a workable midpoint which could lower your application latency by something approaching a factor of 2.

Currently latency ranges between 450 - 550ms from their WAN gateway in Brisbane however if there was an option to terminate a link to their Perth office we would take that path.
