Cherrytop Ltd also operates the autonomous system AS203253.
AS203253 is used to run our Anycast network, which allows the same IP address range to be announced from multiple locations globally. Traffic is automatically routed to the nearest or best-performing edge zone (based on internet routing conditions), so users are served content from a location close to them. This helps us reduce latency, improve page-load times, and increase resilience by distributing traffic across many points of presence—so if one edge zone becomes unavailable or congested, traffic can be redirected to other available locations.
Our Anycast footprint primarily covers most Western geographies, with multiple Points of Presence (PoPs) in the United States and across Europe, plus a presence in Sydney (AU). This provides strong coverage for North America and Europe while also supporting users and deployments in Australia/Oceania.
For any concerns about this network, or if you’re seeing unusual traffic from it, e-mail us at noc (at) this site.
If you’re interested in utilizing our Anycast network for your own services or deployments, please get in touch via noc (at) this site and we’ll discuss requirements and availability.
