KUALA LUMPUR, April 4 (Bernama) -- Amazon Web Services Inc (AWS), an Amazon.com company will open an infrastructure region in Indonesia by 2021-end or early 2022 to serve millions of end-users across Asia Pacific (APAC) with lower latency.
The new AWS APAC (Jakarta) Region will consist of three Availability Zones at the launch, and will be AWS’s ninth region in APAC, joining existing regions in Beijing, Mumbai, Ningxia, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo and an upcoming Hong Kong SAR.
Indonesian start-ups, enterprises and the public sector will have infrastructure in the country to leverage advanced technologies from the world’s leading cloud with the broadest and deepest suite of cloud services such as analytics, artificial intelligence and database.
“Opening an AWS Region in Indonesia will help drive more technology jobs and businesses, boosting the local economy, and enabling organisations across all verticals to lower costs, increase agility and improve flexibility,” said AWS (Global Infrastructure and Customer Support) vice-president, Peter DeSantis.
AWS Regions comprise Availability Zones, which are technology infrastructure in separate and distinct geographic locations with enough distance to significantly reduce the risk of a single event impacting business continuity.
Currently, AWS provides 61 Availability Zones across 20 infrastructure regions worldwide, with another 12 Availability Zones across four AWS Regions in Bahrain, Hong Kong SAR, Italy, and South Africa expected to come online, by the first half of next year.
AWS is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform offering over 165 fully featured services including compute, storage, databases, networking, analytics, robotics, machine learning and artificial intelligence.
