  The location that we are looking into is Sao Paulo.

  So far we have seen that datacenter costs are 2x - 3x higher then the US.

  Bandwidth costs unfortunately currently are 10x-15x higher than the US.

  The other main issue that we are looking into is to understand the infrastructure and resilience of the facilities to see if they have the appropriate measures in place for redundant power, backup power, generators, cooling, etc.

  Thanks!

  +3. Latency goes around 150-160ms from the NY datacenter (the one with best results for my region), but a local datacenter would probably drop that to around 20-30ms, like the local-ultra-expensive host companies from here.
