Can anyone comment on their performance boosts over Tokyo/Singapore with this new region?

  And Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan??? We have been using servers located in North Virginia so far -- it is not that bad actually, definitely better than buying hosting locally. PS: Why downvotes? If you disagree, please care to post your reasoning or experience.

    I imagine you were getting downvoted for using multiple question marks, and people not understanding you were just asking a question. Typically one question mark indicates a question. Multiple question marks usually indicates that you're upset about something or asking a rhetorical question. For example, most people distinguish a difference between sentences like: "What are you doing?" and "What are you doing???" The first indicates a question, the second indicates you are upset or that the person is doing something wrong. The way you wrote your sentence makes it look like you could be making fun of the person you are responding to.

    Wouldn't Frankfurt or Ireland be closer than the USA?

  Amazon has a peered connection at KNIX, although from most locations ingress traffic to the Seoul region is routed through AWS Tokyo first, so latency is probably going to be slightly worse than Tokyo unless accessed from within Korea. Pricing seems very similar if not identical to the Tokyo region, which is not surprising since bandwidth is rather expensive in SK. Overall I feel this is built to satisfy SK's data privacy laws rather than commercial reasons.
