Questions and Concerns About the eUP Project

Technical Issues

• Latency. eUP servers will be hosted by PLDT's Vitro Data Center. UP networks are on PREGINET. They are wide apart in terms of the routes they'd take to reach each other. The same holds with connections between ePLDT and other providers. See traceroutes below. This is an issue when it comes to UP's access to its own data. User authentication is potentially problematic due to delays.
