pete Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I'm using the tool here: Azure Speed Test to gauge latency between our site and Azure datacentres for a potential project. We're within spec (average of 32-35 ms) for the closest datacentres, but the "Content Delivery Network" is way out of spec (at ~200ms), so I'm wondering if the vendor has used desired latency figures for West Europe and North Europe (dynamic content) for the CDN (static content) as well. Alternatively it may be that our RBC connection has terrible latency and someone upstream needs a kick. cheers
Steve21 Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Well, I get two very different answers depending if i go via smoothwall or not Content Delivery Network * 151ms West Europe 168ms North Europe 180ms West UK 447ms Content Delivery Network * 46ms West UK 49ms South UK 50ms North Europe 56ms West Europe 62ms Not sure that helps, but might do I'm assuming you should be showing up as UK too, but with our Smoothie seems to be putting us to EU as well.

pete Posted October 26, 2016 Author Posted October 26, 2016 Cheers All @Steve21 Yeah, I'm testing without the SW and the CDN still has high latency using the link above. Interestingly, the cloudharmony test (https://cloudharmony.com/speedtest-for-azure NB: takes ~43 minutes to run, hence why I didn't ask you guys to use it) shows the Verizon-hosted CDN has less latency.
