Well-Architected Framework: Reliability
summary
Azure Front Door runs across 180 edge locations about 30 ms from users, uses Anycast HTTP routing (keeps client IPs) to fail over faster than DNS, and routes around real outages from fiber cuts to event-driven congestion. A backend system called Map of the Internet ingests telemetry from many millions of devices, applies ML to spot sustained vs transient degradation, and automates rerouting; Internet Analyzer injects a tiny test object into web pages, returns regional scorecards and AB comparisons, and Front Door expands roughly one new edge site per week.
