Thanks Diana for details.

Let me explore the details. I will come back soon.

I have quick questions,

What is the response time of reverse geocoding for India where we have
added maximum layers to get good address accuracy?

What is infrastructure required to maintain Pelias for reverse geocoding
services ?

Regards
Neel
