Abstract
A multi-region cloud service facilitated by a distributed container execution system comprising a plurality of edge proxy servers deployed in a plurality of geographical regions to receive from a plurality of client devices a plurality of requests to access the distributed container execution system and a plurality of application servers deployed in the plurality of geographical regions to provide the cloud service. Each edge proxy server is configured to analyze each request it receives to identify a target geographical region of the respective request, transmit the respective request to the application server(s) deployed in a same geographical region in case the target geographical region is the geographical region of the edge proxy server, and transmit the respective request to other edge proxy server(s) deployed in the target geographical region in case the target geographical region is not the geographical region of the respective edge proxy server.
