Video Regions with GLL (Global Low Latency)

Developers can now select the geolocation of the Twilio infrastructure that serves their Video Rooms. In addition, developers can use a new GLL (Global Low Latency) option. When selected, Twilio automatically chooses the closest region to minimize the latency of participants connecting to the room.

By default, GLL is deactivated. To implement this feature for your application, you need to use the SDK API, the Rooms REST API or the Twilio Video Console to specify a different region as explained in our docs.
