Besides the hostname of mirrors.evowise.com that's anycast already, what hostnames are there to target & test specific locations?

For testing please see:
Spain    = es-mirrors.evowise.com
Italy    = it-mirrors.evowise.com
UK       = uk-mirrors.evowise.com
Romania  = ro-mirrors.evowise.com
USA East = ny-mirrors.evowise.com
USA West = la-mirrors.evowise.com

The mirrors.evowise.com domain can be listed under each location, it will route users to one of the above hostnames based on their location. 



Thanks!

Wanted to follow up on this. We've made significant improvements over the weekend in our overall network performance of mirrors. Also solved an issue with IPv6 so that it now performs on par with ipv4.
Comment 4 Hayden James 2016-07-26 18:53:02 UTC
it will route users to the closest CDN network based on their location, using Anycast IP.*

Thanks, I have added the mirror(s) now.

I need to look at future rewrites of how we do mirrors and redirection (mostly to take advantage of SSL), and it'll have to take into account other anycast/geo-aware solutions where the monitoring addresses may vary from the service address (eg say both US nodes are down).

Thanks! Happy to be on board!
Comment 7 Hayden James 2016-11-09 21:03:25 UTC

Demand for mirrors is not large, so we do not need additional mirrors at this time. Thank you for your consideration.
