We launched the long-awaited PoP in Johannesburg.
In early 2020, we expanded our network capacity in Kyiv and launched the first point of presence in India.
We then switched to network development for one of the world’s most problematic regions for infrastructure—Latin America.
CDN in South America
We launched our first point of presence here in São Paulo in 2018.
More than 300 million people are using the Internet in Latin America. To reduce delays in content delivery, we have set up additional CDN nodes in Bogota (Colombia), Buenos Aires (Argentina), and Santiago (Chile).
Superior performance in South America
After launching and optimizing three new PoPs at the same time, Gcore network engineers managed to reduce the response time in South America to 37 ms.

The expansion of the Latin American part of the network allowed Gcore to become a leader in content delivery speed in Argentina where the response time is now around 30 ms.
