Regions
A region is one location with its own compute, storage and network. Resources live in one region, and their resource names include it.
| Region | Location | Status |
|---|---|---|
lab-neo-1 |
A single site outside Africa (Europe), on TebibHost’s lab hardware | Preview: for trying the platform, not for production data |
| Nairobi (name to be announced) | Nairobi, Kenya | Coming with the public beta |
What the preview region means for you
Section titled “What the preview region means for you”- Latency: the lab region is far from East Africa, so round trips from Nairobi are much longer than they will be to the Nairobi region. Latency-sensitive workloads should wait for it.
- Durability: disks are replicated within the region, and TebibHost backs up its own platform data. Your VMs and volumes are not backed up for you: keep copies of anything you can’t lose elsewhere. See Shared responsibility.
- Data location: data in
lab-neo-1is stored outside Africa. Don’t put personal data there that must stay in Kenya or Ethiopia.
Your organization’s home region
Section titled “Your organization’s home region”Each organization has a home region, set when it is created. Its billing, identity documents for verification, and organization data are kept there.
