AZs are physically separated by a meaningful distance, many kilometers, from any other AZ, although all are within 100 km (60 miles) of each other. To the far right on your SnagIt Editor desktop, make sure Quick Styles is open. If an application is partitioned across AZs, companies are better isolated and protected from issues such as power outages, lightning strikes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and more. AZs make partitioning applications for high availability easy. The network performance is sufficient to accomplish synchronous replication between AZs. All AZs in an AWS Region are interconnected with high-bandwidth, low-latency networking, over fully redundant, dedicated metro fiber providing high-throughput, low-latency networking between AZs. AZs give customers the ability to operate production applications and databases that are more highly available, fault tolerant, and scalable than would be possible from a single data center. AWS maintains multiple geographic Regions, including Regions in North America, South America, Europe, China, Asia Pacific, South Africa, and the Middle East.Īn Availability Zone (AZ) is one or more discrete data centers with redundant power, networking, and connectivity in an AWS Region. AWS infrastructure Regions meet the highest levels of security, compliance, and data protection.ĪWS provides a more extensive global footprint than any other cloud provider, and to support its global footprint and ensure customers are served across the world, AWS opens new Regions rapidly. AWS customers focused on high availability can design their applications to run in multiple AZs to achieve even greater fault-tolerance. Each AZ has independent power, cooling, and physical security and is connected via redundant, ultra-low-latency networks.

Unlike other cloud providers, who often define a region as a single data center, the multiple AZ design of every AWS Region offers advantages for customers. Each AWS Region consists of multiple, isolated, and physically separate AZs within a geographic area. We call each group of logical data centers an Availability Zone. AWS has the concept of a Region, which is a physical location around the world where we cluster data centers.
