Amazon hat heute eine neue Region in Tokio angekündigt. Der Wortlaut aus dem Announcement ist folgender:
Starting today, Japan-based businesses and global companies with customers in Japan can run their applications and workloads in the new Tokyo Region to reduce latency to end-users, keep their data entirely in Japan, and avoid the undifferentiated heavy lifting associated with maintaining and operating their own infrastructure. In most cases, end users in Japan can now experience single digit millisecond latency from AWS's new Tokyo Region. Tokyo joins Singapore as our second Asia Pacific location and as our fifth infrastructure location worldwide.
Nach Singapur ist Tokio damit die 2 Region in Asien und die 5. Region, die Amazon weltweit anbietet. Rund um das Angebot plant Amazon japanisch sprechende Support, sowie den Service in Yen abzurechnen.
