Ways to reduce the latency achieved on my Virtual Machine in Azure

does anyone have any ways in which I could reduce the latency for my Azure WM (in-managed disk)? I currently have one running on the UK South area which is running at an average of 2.85m/s which is fantastic compared to the 16m/s I was receiving using my on-premises system.

However, if possible, I'd like to have this even lower, preferably down to 0.5m/s. Does anyone have any ways in which I could achieve this in the most cost-effective manner

Thanks

Solution

  • Well, to get 0.5ms you need to be in the range of, like, 50-60km (máximum) from the VM. Because physics, you know?

    Having said that, the only way to reduce latency is use Express Route, but it probably wont help given you have <3ms latency already.
