Closest cloud regions

The 3 closest regions of each provider. Closer is usually faster, but routing can beat geography, so once measured they re-rank by latency.

How a cloud ping test works

  1. 1

    Locate

    Your IP (or, if you allow it, your browser's location) tells us which regions are physically closest to you.

  2. 2

    Measure

    Your browser sends HTTPS requests straight to each region. The first one sets up the connection; the rest measure round-trip time.

  3. 3

    Compare

    Regions are ranked by median latency. Runs are saved in this browser so you can compare networks, places and times of day.

Azure ping test FAQ

How latency is measured, which clouds are included, and what stays in your browser.

How does the Azure ping test work?

Cloud Ping sends HTTPS requests from your browser to Microsoft Azure's public regional endpoints (Azure AI Services regional endpoint). It reports median latency, jitter and failed samples for each of the 41 Azure regions in the catalog.

Which Azure region is closest to me?

Cloud Ping lists the Azure regions nearest to your approximate location, then re-ranks them by measured latency once a test finishes. The lowest median latency is the Azure region that is fastest from your network right now.

Which cloud providers can I ping?

Cloud Ping measures 8 providers and 205 regions: Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, DigitalOcean, Akamai / Linode, Vultr. You can test all of them, or open a provider page to ping only that cloud.

How is a cloud ping test different from a speed test?

A speed test measures download and upload bandwidth to one nearby server. Cloud Ping measures latency (round-trip time) to many cloud regions, so you can choose where to run workloads, not how fast a single file downloads.

Does Cloud Ping store my IP address or results?

Your IP is used only to guess nearby regions. Precise location is optional and stays in the browser. Finished runs are saved in this browser so you can compare networks and times of day; they are not uploaded to Cloud Ping.

Why is a closer cloud region sometimes slower?

Physical distance is a strong hint, but internet routing, congested paths, and the endpoint we probe can make a farther region faster. That is why Cloud Ping re-ranks regions by measured latency after a test, not by map distance alone.

Azure regions Cloud Ping measures

41 Microsoft Azure endpoints. Latency is measured against Azure AI Services regional endpoint.
