This was just an example. If the users are in Singapore and the USA. I'm not sure what would be more 'edge' than this configuration.

More 'edge' would be colocating your equipment in each major New York ISP's data center. One box for RCN, one for Optimum, one for Verizon...

But some people would say if it's in any kind of data center, it's not true edge.

You do realize that users travel right? And that the US is absolutely massive and there are wide latency differences between coast to coast? Using two DCs isn't "edge"
