METHODS AND APPARATUS TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE OF CLOUD-BASED SERVICES ACROSS GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to improve performance of cloud-based services across geographic regions. An example apparatus includes a response parser to, in response to obtaining an authorization token indicating to utilize a software-as-a-service (SaaS), determine a tenant identification code based on an authorization token, and determine a first point of presence in response to determining the tenant identification code, a shard analyzer to determine a second point of presence of a shard, the shard being a deployed instance of the SaaS, and a shard selector to assign the shard to a user when the first point of presence and the second point of presence are the same.
