Azure cross-region latency can be impacted by the distance between your Azure regions and Azure availability zones, network quality, network congestion, and data transfer methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The distance between Azure regions has a large impact on latency. As you might expect, latency is greater between geographically dispersed regions, such as Qatar central, Korea central, India, and Southeast Asia, than it is for regions that are close to each other, such as East US 2 (e.g., Georgia), North Central US (e.g., Illinois), and South Central US (e.g., Texas).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To monitor and measure average latency, use one of these three tools to run speed tests on your Azure storage endpoints:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Azurespeed.com:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azurespeed.com\/Azure\/Latency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Azurespeed.com<\/a>\u00a0is a free, Azure-specific tool for testing latency between Azure cloud regions.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Ping: <\/strong>Ping is a simple latency test utility available on all operating systems that measures the RTT (Round Trip Time) between a device and a target destination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>TWAMP:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.juniper.net\/documentation\/us\/en\/software\/junos\/alg\/topics\/topic-map\/security-twamp-alg.html#:~:text=The%20Two%2DWay%20Active%20Measurement%20Protocol%20(TWAMP)%20is%20an,protocols%20in%20the%20TWAMP%20framework.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TWAMP<\/a>\u00a0tests latency bidirectionally by establishing a connection between the source device and the target with TCP and using UDP packets to monitor the latency.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Reduce Latency Issues between Azure Regions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If high latency is disrupting your applications and user\/employee experience, try these methods for reducing Azure cross-region latency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Proximity Placement Groups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Azure\u2019s storage regions range from West Europe (e.g., Netherlands), South India (e.g., Chennai), North Europe (e.g., Ireland), Brazil South (e.g., Sao Paulo), Southeast Asia (e.g., Singapore), and more. No matter how good network performance is on any region in the Azure network, the further your data must travel, the more latency you\u2019ll incur.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proximity placement is a strategy that involves reducing latency by reducing the distance your data must travel by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Keeping your data in Azure regions that are close to each other.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Keeping your data in Azure data centers that are near your end-users \u2014 i.e., the same country or region or in nearby regions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While these may not be possible for all businesses depending on legal regulations and costs, the key is to research your options and aim to reduce traveling distance as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Resilio Platform Enables Proximity Placement<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio Platform provides granular control over how synchronization occurs in your environment. It enables you to control which files are stored at which endpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, you can store frequently accessed files at the cloud or on-premises endpoints that are closest to your end-users, so you can minimize distance and latency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio\u2019s multidirectional synchronization capabilities (more on this later) also enable you to sync data across all of your endpoints simultaneously. This enables you to keep data synchronized across all of your Azure cloud regions, so end-users can always access data from the endpoint closest to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Efficient Routing of Network Traffic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Managing how data travels across your network is another effective way to reduce latency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Efficient routing involves minimizing distance and congestion by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Transferring data along the shortest path to the target endpoint.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Controlling network traffic to minimize congestion.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When an application needs access to data, it should be able to retrieve that data from the endpoint closest to it. To transfer data along the shortest path between Azure cloud regions, set up Accelerated Networking in Azure (which you can learn how to do&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/microsoft.github.io\/AzureTipsAndTricks\/blog\/tip226.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An easy way to minimize network traffic when transferring data across Azure regions is to enable&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows-hardware\/drivers\/network\/introduction-to-receive-side-scaling\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Receive Side Scaling<\/a>. Per their documentation, \u201cReceive Side Scaling is a network driver technology that enables the efficient distribution of network receive processing across multiple CPUs in multiprocessor systems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basically, it helps control and spread traffic across your network to minimize congestion on any single network by reducing processing delays, spinlock overhead, reloading of caches, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Resilio Platform Efficiently Routes Network Traffic<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio Platform efficiently routes network traffic and reduces latency through two features (more information on both will be provided in the next section):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. P2P replication architecture<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Resilio Connect, Resilio agents are installed on every endpoint (servers, physical locations, cloud servers, etc.) and data is replicated via a peer-to-peer transfer architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike most replication solutions that use point-to-point transfer, P2P replication enables every device in your environment to share data with and receive data from every other device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because every device can communicate with every other device, Resilio can provide the benefits of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Accelerated networking<\/strong>: Your endpoints\/Azure cloud regions can receive data from the regions\/endpoints closest to them, thus minimizing distance and latency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Network traffic distribution<\/strong>: Every endpoint with a Resilio agent installed on it can take part in replication simultaneously. When replicating data across your environment, you can also distribute the network workload across your environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. WAN acceleration technology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio Platform utilizes a proprietary WAN acceleration protocol known as Zero Gravity Transport\u2122 (ZGT) to enhance transfer over any network by efficiently managing network traffic. For example, ZGT uses a congestion control algorithm that constantly probes the RTT of a network to identify and maintain an ideal data packet send rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Feel free to read&nbsp;<\/em><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.resilio.com\/resources\/assets\/resilio-connect-wan-optimization-white-paper.pdf\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Resilio\u2019s WAN Optimization White Paper<\/em><\/a><em>.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Ways to Optimize Cross-Region Transfer in Azure with Resilio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio Platform is a real-time file synchronization software that provides the fastest data transfer speeds in the industry, enabling users to reduce network latency, improve application performance, and optimize workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we provide a deeper exploration of how Resilio reduces latency and speeds up access to data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sync Azure Regions Quickly with P2P Replication &amp; WAN Optimization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio Platform reduces latency by increasing the speed at which data is transferred. The two primary features driving Resilio\u2019s blazing fast replication speeds are Resilio\u2019s P2P replication architecture and proprietary WAN optimization protocol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High-Performance P2P Replication for Fast, Scalable, Multidirectional Replication<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Most replication solutions use a point-to-point replication architecture. In point-to-point replication, data is transferred in one of two models:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.&nbsp;<strong>Hub-and-spoke replication: <\/strong>In hub-and-spoke replication, one device is designated as a hub server and the other devices are remote servers. The remote servers can\u2019t communicate with each other; all file transfers must go through the hub server. So, if Device 1 wants to share data with the other devices in your environment, it must first transfer the data to the hub server, which will then share the data with the other devices one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2.&nbsp;<strong>Follow-the-sun replication:<\/strong> In follow-the-sun replication, data is transferred from one device to another sequentially. So Device 1 shares data with Device 2, which then shares the data with Device 3, and so forth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both of these replication models are slowed by the fact that data can only transfer between two devices at a time. Replication speed is also limited by the network on each device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Resilio\u2019s P2P replication model, every device in your environment can communicate with every other device. Resilio also utilizes a process known as file chunking, which breaks files down into multiple chunks that can transfer independently of each other. The combination of P2P transfer and file chunking enables all of your devices to take part in synchronization simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine you want to sync a file across five devices. Resilio can split that file into five separate chunks. Device 1 can share the first chunk with Device 2. As soon as it receives the first chunk, Device 2 can share it with Device 3. With every device working together,&nbsp;<strong>you can achieve full synchronization 3-10x faster than with traditional replication solutions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"690\" height=\"388\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.resilio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image2.gif\" alt=\"GIF representing P2P vs client server models.\" class=\"wp-image-10253\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This process enables you to reduce network latency by distributing file synchronization across every device in your environment and reducing the load on any single network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For all data transfers, Resilio Platform engages in smart routing \u2014 i.e., the process of using the fastest, most optimal path to deliver data from a source to a destination.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio\u2019s P2P replication architecture also provides:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Organic Scalability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With traditional replication solutions, every new endpoint you add to your system adds more strain on your environment and reduces sync speed. Since data can only transfer between two devices at a time, having more devices means longer sync times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Resilio, every device can participate in synchronization simultaneously. So adding new devices only increases the resources and bandwidth available for sync. In other words, more demand creates more supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio can sync hundreds of endpoints in roughly the same time that most solutions take to sync just two endpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Higher Resilience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Point-to-point replication creates multiple single points of failure. In both point-to-point sync models, if any device goes down, it can delay synchronization for all the other devices awaiting data transfers. And, in hub-and-spoke replication, if the hub server goes down, replication fails entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Resilio\u2019s P2P replication architecture makes it highly resilient with no single point of failure. If any device or network goes down, the necessary files or services can be retrieved from any other device in your environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes Resilio Platform a great solution for disaster recovery \u2014 it can provide Active-Active High Availability, meet sub-five second RPOs (Recovery Point Objective), and achieve RTOs (Recovery Time Objective) within minutes of an outage.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"699\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.resilio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hot-dr-warm-dr-cold-dr-and-offsite-copy-699x1024.png\" alt=\"Hot\/Live DR: Multi-site Active\/Active; Warm DR: Active\/Active; Cold DR: Active\/Passive; Offsite Copy: Backup Copy\" class=\"wp-image-10761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getsynccom.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hot-dr-warm-dr-cold-dr-and-offsite-copy-699x1024.png 699w, https:\/\/getsynccom.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hot-dr-warm-dr-cold-dr-and-offsite-copy-205x300.png 205w, https:\/\/getsynccom.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hot-dr-warm-dr-cold-dr-and-offsite-copy-768x1126.png 768w, https:\/\/getsynccom.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hot-dr-warm-dr-cold-dr-and-offsite-copy-1048x1536.png 1048w, https:\/\/getsynccom.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/hot-dr-warm-dr-cold-dr-and-offsite-copy.png 1364w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 699px) 100vw, 699px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Multidirectional Synchronization<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resilio Platform can sync data in any direction \u2014 one-to-one, bidirectional, one-to-many, many-to-one, and N-Way sync.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to replicate data in any direction enables you to quickly sync data across your entire system, reduce traffic on any single network (i.e., load balancing), and minimize latency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>N-way sync, in particular, is very effective for remote and distributed workforce scenarios.
