Edge Location

An Edge Location refers to a data center or server that is located closer to users in a network, often in different geographic areas. It helps deliver content, like videos or websites, more quickly and efficiently by reducing the distance data travels. This enhances the user experience by decreasing loading times and improving performance. Edge Locations are part of content delivery networks (CDNs) and are essential for services like streaming, online gaming, and large-scale web applications, ensuring that information is readily available when users need it.
