Hi all,
I’ve been using my deployed website from Belgium and noticed it is much slower here than in the US. Is there a way to fix this? Is this because the servers are all located in the US?
Best,
Dimitri
Hi Dimitri,
This is a topic that often arises because of geography and the origins of your users. We have both US and EU regions available at the moment to host your application so we’d suggest that you host your application closest to your largest user base. As well as this, making sure you’re using all the tools in your belt, caching of assets, a CDN maybe to keep the number of requests to our app where the processing occurs.
Im not super familiar with how dedicated servers work, but other hosting applications like amazon for example, you can change the region at ease and duplicate it to multiple regions, is there something where I could have multiple servers hosting the same backend app in different regions?
Hey,
That feature isn’t available on our platform right now, but we’ve already got a feedback item open for it here: https://feedback.render.com/features/p/multi-region-support-for-apps. Feel free to upvote it to show your support.
