Hi, noticing Shoponline being mentioned I thought I better say
something.. lol. Of course I need to introduce myself too, as a newbie.
My name is Dhiruj Rambaran, director of Shoponline Ltd (shoponline.mu).
Thanks for pointing out this latency issue. I can verify that Shoponline
is delivered from "North Europe"... however the "Default Directory"
(Azure Directory) is South Asia. Hence I believe this is why it shows
South Asia. Obviously this must be the issue but I don't know much about
this aspect of the cloud. I guess the south asian region is being "hit"
by Mauritius first, then directed to North Europe, then back to
Mauritius.. basically travelling the Indian Ocean Rim (sort of.. lol). I
believe this could explain the 330ms latency. Obviously my fault and so
i'll try and find some time to research if I can change this setting
"on-the-fly" and convert this directory to North Europe.

I chose North Europe because, in my mind, I thought it would be nearer
to Mauritius. I may be completely wrong in this assumption though :(

In any case thanks for taking the time to both check this, and write
about it here.

Kind regards to everyone here
