Currently the latency from our end to SL servers is about 350ms, so it would be very interesting to see how our clients would react to the improved response times from the Singapore DC. I am sure this would spark more competitiveness in the Asian DC market which is currently charging a stiff premium to clients due to their geographical proximity.
