One of the benefits of our new storage engine[0] is that it'll be much easier for us to host it in any datacenter, rather than just the biggest, best-connected ones. We still have a lot of work to do to make this available to all durable objects and actually start utilizing smaller datacenters this way, but we're working on it.

(I'm tech lead for Workers and have been focused on this storage engine in particular.)

Great to hear! Your work is really impressve.

I really hope this becomes higher, the less latency the more compelling Durable Objects become for real-time applications.

Better than California by a long shot
