--- title: Global IP canonical: https://telnyx.com/products/global-ip --- # Global IP **ABOUT** ## Improve network performance with edge routing Latency negatively impacts customer satisfaction and cloud outages cause services to go offline, hurting revenue. To support global scale and fast service delivery, businesses need a network that can handle millions of HTTP requests and traffic. Edge routing determines the optimal path for data on a network, accounting for distance, network health, and PoP congestion. Correctly-configured edge routing ensures efficient data transmission, reducing latency and improving overall network performance. Telnyx’s Global Edge Router facilitates fast data delivery to the end user. Our global edge network routes data close to the source, decreasing latency. What’s more, our BGP-anycast solution has instantaneous failover between multiple cloud providers, so services never appear offline. **FEATURES** ## Edge routing, for global applications Global Edge Router gives you a complete view of your network to ensure your services are always online. * ### BGP-anycast Global Edge Router uses BGP-anycast to ensure instantaneous failover in the event of an unhealthy node, so your services never appear offline. * ### Smart routing Global Edge Router uses BGP-anycast to determine the optimal path for data to travel across our network, delivering a low-latency, highly-available service. * ### Multi-cloud failover Global Edge Router is the first BGP-anycast solution to work across all major cloud service providers; it keeps your multi-cloud services accessible without manual intervention. * ### One IP Configure a single IP address for your multi-region applications to deliver a high performance global solution. * ### Analytics dashboards Granular analytics dashboards in Mission Control provide full transparency into site performance so you can be proactive and informed. * ### Global footprint Our edge network consists of 25+ points of presence at strategic global hubs, for industry-low latency. ## Benefits ## True global scale We’re continuing to spin up edge PoPs at strategic global hubs to support true edge networking that will increase the availability of services across the globe. 25 ## global edge PoPs ## Always-on support Most providers put phone support behind a paywall.

An edge network refers to infrastructure located close to the sources of data, such as IoT devices or local servers. It processes or stores data at the "edge" of the network, near the data source, rather than sending it back to a centralized cloud-based data center. This approach reduces latency and bandwidth usage and increases privacy and security. ### What is edge routing? ### What is BGP-anycast? ### Why is DNS not enough? ### How can Telnyx help improve my network performance? ### How can I get started with Global Edge Router **Resources, Docs, Support** ## Global Edge Router hub * ### Telnyx Programmable Networking Overview | Telnyx Introduction [Read more](https://developers.telnyx.com/docs/network/overview) * ### Networking APIs | Telnyx The Networking APIs allow you to create and manage your own Networks.
