Improve performance and reduce chances of request failures with this one simple trick! Avoid cross-region calls.

This technical article details the performance and resilience benefits of avoiding cross-region calls in a microservices architecture. It explains the latency and failure point reductions of keeping traffic local, while also covering the design complexities of implementing a regionally isolated, cell-based architecture, including data replication and routing strategies.
