Infrastructure

Multi-Region LRN Replication Infrastructure

Our LRN database is replicated across distributed U.S. regions to minimize lookup latency and maximize reliability. New regional endpoints are deployed dynamically based on customer demand, ensuring consistently low response times nationwide.

🌐

Distributed U.S. Endpoints

Replication nodes distributed across U.S. regions to serve nationally distributed traffic without cross-country latency penalties.

🧠

Intelligent Regional Routing

Requests are automatically routed to the nearest available replication node. Your queries never travel farther than necessary.

🔄

Automatic Failover

If a regional node becomes unavailable, queries instantly failover to the next nearest node. No manual intervention. No downtime.

📈

Horizontally Scalable

New replication nodes are provisioned based on geographic demand. As your traffic grows or spreads, the infrastructure scales with it.

Sub-10ms Target Response Time

Distributed architecture keeps query paths short. Sub-10ms response times across CONUS traffic patterns.

🔒

NPAC-Sourced at Every Node

All regional nodes replicate from NPAC-direct sources — not secondary resellers. Data freshness is consistent across all regions.

Simple, Predictable Pricing

No Surprises. Ever.

We charge less than legacy providers and publish our prices openly. No setup fees, no hidden costs, no annual lock-in required.

  • An LRN (Location Routing Number) Lookup API queries the NPAC database to determine where a telephone number is currently routed — especially important for ported numbers. It returns the LRN, OCN, SPID, rate center, LATA, and porting status in a single API call.
  • Our distributed U.S. replication infrastructure delivers sub-10ms P99 response times nationwide. This is achieved through a multi-node Redis caching layer backed by direct NPAC connectivity — not a third-party reseller chain.
  • Yes. New accounts get 1,000 free LRN lookups with no credit card required. Start building in minutes.
  • Standard fields include: lrn, ocn, spid, rate_center, lata, ported, line_type, andlatency_ms. Enterprise accounts can request extended fields.
  • Yes. Our batch endpoint accepts up to 10,000 numbers per request and returns results in bulk. Ideal for list scrubbing and pre-dial verification workflows.
