The scenario

A global traffic manager resolves a user's DNS query and routes them to the nearest CDN edge based on geo-location.

What is in this drawing

Read the decisions behind it.

01

Resolver cache hit vs miss

02

Geo-location match selects nearest edge; miss falls back to default

03

Returned edge IP is cached for future queries

Reusable for documenting DNS-based global server load balancing, CDN routing, or any geo-aware traffic management flow.
