Its a bit sad, we have one of the Swedish, actual physical buildings for AWS in my town. But of course the traffic does not exit here, but is instead aggregated between the different sites spread around cities regionally. So no sub-ms latencies for me towards that center. I think the traffic basically went a couple hundred kms before turning back here.
- immibis 2y agoI presume your town is too small for it since you called it a town, but AWS also does these things called "wavelength zones" which are as close as possible to certain cellular networks (designed to ride th 5G M2M hype train - self-driving vehicles, etc). Not sure if they do something similar for fixed networks. Of course, it doesn't actually matter since friends don't let friends use AWS.
- Hikikomori 2y agoDoes your ISP peer directly with Aws?
- sandos 2y agoNo, which is a possible solution, but I suspect they simply dont peer locally.
- bauruine 2y agoEven if they did it's very unlikely they would peer in your town. Geographic proximity isn't the main factor for peering and even if they did your session may still get terminated at a border network gateway in a big city and your traffic has to travel the same way.
