Congrats on launching.

Where are you data center(s) located and what does it mean for API performance? I assume that your service basically works as a reverse proxy in front of my API, but wouldn't there be a noticeable performance penalty if my DC is e.g. in the US and yours is in Europe?

Also: You should probably go back and give the FAQ on the pricing page another sweep. https://cloud.tyk.io/pricing

assocaited costs = associated costs when you create a new API = When you create a new API don;t = don't

to name a few :)

Cheers, spelling has improved :-/ damned sausage fingers!

Our servers are currently in the US as that's where the market is (from what we've found, so far). It's something we've thought about and we will be looking at doing international deployments as soon as there is demand.

For API performance, a cloud-based setup does mean an increase in latency, but that is why our solution can be self-hosted too, it's a trade-off that works on a scale, you can start off with a cloud service, with quite straightforward integration and then as your API usage grows look at using Tyk within your own data centers.

And yet your pricing page shows rates in GBP, not USD. What's up with that?
