Still no further info on the London region since their announcement post[1] said:
> Today, I am excited to add the United Kingdom to that list! The AWS UK region will be our third in the European Union (EU), and we're shooting to have it ready by the end of 2016 (or early 2017). This region will provide even lower latency and strong data sovereignty to local users.

- dazc 10y agoSince UK is about to be outside of the EU it's likely this has been put on hold? I don't know what the facts are but I'm guessing the UK accounts for a large slice of data currently being routed via Ireland, so it isn't going to be on hold for long?
- wastedhours 10y agoI know you can target Ireland as the API endpoint for SES, but in light of Brexit and all the issues still with Safe Harbour, hopefully having a UK offering will make me a lot happier with routing email sends (data wise).
- arviewer 10y agoNo it's not on hold: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/coming-in-2017-new-aws-region-in-france/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/coming-in-2017-new-aws-regi...
- arviewer 10y agoYes, they confirmed it here: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/coming-in-2017-new-aws-region-in-france/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/coming-in-2017-new-aws-regi... > This will be the fourth AWS Region in Europe. We currently have two other Regions in Europe — EU (Ireland) and EU (Frankfurt) and an additional Region in the UK expected to launch in the coming months.
