Abstract:
A method and a system are provided for implementing a global application program interface and providing routing to a number of services. A global traffic manager may receive an application program interface call from an originating processing device via an open public network. The global traffic manager may return an address of a closest edge server, with respect to the originating processing device, from among a number of edge servers, in an edge network. The edge server may obtain a location having data corresponding to the application program interface call and may make a data specific application program interface call to a data center corresponding to the obtained location. The edge server may receive data from the data center and may ensure that the data is in a proper format. The edge server may send the data to the originating processing device via the open public network.
