====== Change the Server of a Training Session ======

==== Background: Why Should You Care About Server Placement ====
Training Sessions are hosted on one or more servers depending on how many servers you rent from Pathomation around the globe.\\ 
The server is the place where you and your participants connect to, stream the digital pathology images from, upload form data to, and more.

The closer the server is to your participants, the shorter the distance the data has to travel, and the better the performance will be.\\
Especially for data-intensive applications like viewing digital pathology images, this can make a huge difference to loading speed and the viewing experience of your participants!\\

==== Ok. I'm convinced, how do I do it? ====
Prior to PathoTrainer version 2.2.0 (released NOV-2025), you had to manually select a single server per Training Session to which your participants will be connecting (see image below). \\
This sometimes created administrative burdens for Training Sessions with participants joining simultaneously from different geographies and always-available [[Course mode|Courses]].

With PathoTrainer 2.2.0, you now have the added option to turn on 'Automatically select best region'.\\
When activated, the system will attempt to detect and assign the fastest and nearest server to a participant.\\
You can also still select the region manually if so desired.\\
You will find the controls to do so in the Edit page of a Training Session, or when Creating a new Training Session.\\
See the video below for more information!

**Please note:** If you only have one server with Pathomation, all users will always be assigned to that server - contact //[[info@pathomation.com]]// and //[[pm@pathomation.com]]// to learn more about adding additional servers to boost your performance globally.\\
