I haven't been able to find much about server location. Where is the server located for the convex DB? Is it distributed to multiple locations globally, or is it a single location (if so, how can i select the location)?

I'm having this new project that I would like to use Convex for, but the product is initially India-only. I find it hard to justify using Convex here over Supabase / Firebase because of latency limitations, which sucks!
I found that edge network is in private alpha here: https://discord.com/channels/1019350475847499849/1019350478817079338/1225858825526050947
Here are some questions I have about this:
1. Any ETA on a public version?
2. How hard is it to enroll into the private alpha of the edge network support (india only) ?
3. What if I start out the project on US today and later edge networks rolls out. Will I be able to make the switch to India?
Edge network will be automatically rolled out to the relevant plan with minimal to no work from you.
At most it will be just changing the URL to the convex backend
Okay, how about 1. and 2.?
Thanks Indy for answering 3. Sounds good to me!
No eta. We'll probably return to the prototype next year. I don't think we're ready for any early testers yet, but I'll double check with the team.
Thank you! Fingers crossed 🤞
