How it works
Get a deployment planFrom checkpoint to production,without the detour.
Checkpoint01 / 04
Where it runs
Served from the sitenearest every user.
Fast everywhere
Each request is served from the site nearest the user, so time to first token stays low in every region, not only near one data center.
Elastic capacity
When traffic surges in one region, nearby sites take the overflow. A single site would queue it.
Resilient by design
If a site goes down, its traffic moves to the next nearest site and the endpoint stays up.
Sovereign data
Models can be pinned to specific regions for data residency.
