What to ask providers Where are their game servers and edge nodes hosted, do they offer regional endpoints, and what is their published p95 response time.

Build a simple benchmark Run a scripted sandbox test for a week across peak hours and record p50, p95 and error rates. Bring the numbers to the commercial conversation.
