LaunchDarkly Bolsters Its Global Infrastructure with New Data Centers

LaunchDarkly has added two data centers in Asia-Pacific and Europe to improve initial connection times for its customers, resulting in nearly 50% decrease in client SDK initialization times in Europe and a whopping 90% in Asia-Pacific. The new data centers enable faster connections by routing traffic to the fastest data center based on an end user's location. This improvement is part of LaunchDarkly's larger initiative to enhance its enterprise-grade architecture, with plans to add more endpoints around the world and in the United States in 2020 for further performance improvements.
