Palo Alto's latest press release touts 150+ data centers globally. "Improved performance" is the claim.

Has anyone actually measured the before/after? Or is this just a vanity metric for their sales deck?

* Ping times are easy to fake. What's the real-world latency for your primary apps?
* Did they add capacity in your region, or just reshuffle the list?
* Show me the traceroute. A/B test results against Zscaler or Netskope would be even better.

Don't tell me about the list. Show me the data.


If it's not a retention curve, I don't care.
