Global distribution means that you can store user data in any region where our cloud providers (currently GCP, more to come soon) are present.

Whether you want to store all or part of your userbase in Japan, Poland, Australia, or any other region, we have you covered at no extra fee and without a complex multi-tenant, multi-dashboard setup.

A large portion of our engineering team cut their teeth at CrowdStrike where ThreatGraph processes several trillion events per week, so we understand that building large-scale cloud systems is a complex and challenging task. For this reason, we have spent over 18 months building and stress-testing our infrastructure.

The SlashID multi-region environment has been live in production for over a year, with more than 3 million users across different regions and several hundred organizations.

Having evaluated several options including large-scale distributed databases like CockroachDB and PlanetScale, we believe our approach is unique and provides the lowest possible latency.
