  • Region is a distinct geographic location where amazon has its infrastructure

  • All the regions are designed to be independent of each other with separate power sources, internet connectivity and

geographic location

  • An availability zone is a separate datacenter within a region. Amazon has intentionally kept region independent of each other if one goes down it does not have effect on other.

For e.g. amazon have 2 AZ in Mumbai ap-south-1a, ap-south-1b.

  1. Edge location are cdn end points. edge locations are used by cloud front to cache files near the user who access them. For e.g. if a user wants to watch movie it’s better to cache the movie to location near the user for latency

User can select the region depending upon following criteria

  1. User proximity – choose the base closer to the user

  2. Cost – cost may varies based on region

  3. Compliance – laws of lands such as data protection laws will influence your choice of regions.
