Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to configure a replication system to reduce latency of data read access operations in a cloud computing environment. Intelligent routing decision systems and methods are implemented in conjunction with a distributed replication system in a cloud computing environment to direct write requests to a primary site (e.g., production site) by default, and to automatically and intelligently direct read requests to a target site (e.g., primary site or replica site) to reduce data read latency and/or bandwidth. A reduction in read delay is achieved, in part, by intelligently selecting a target site (e.g., data center) in a cloud computing environment which is close or closest in distance to a requesting entity (e.g., user or application) requesting data, thereby reducing a propagation delay and/or latency in accessing and downloading data from the target site.
