Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for lowering network latency for cloud-based services. Service-delivery edge locations allow customers to improve communication-providers public and private network connectivity for improved performance. One method includes operations for performing, by an edge server, a handshake to establish a communication session between a client and a main server, and for exchanging data between the client and the main server via the edge server. The handshake includes exchanging, by the edge server, communication initiation messages with the client, and validating, by the edge server, authentication credentials for the communication session based on the communication initiation messages. The exchanging data comprises forwarding, by the edge server, data requests from the client to the main server through a private connection between the edge server and the main server, and forwarding, by the edge server, data responses from the main server to the client through the private connection.
