Why? It's literally an AZ out of many that AWS provides.
- krallja 9y agous-east-1 feels like the region where Amazon rolls things out first. This has two primary effects: * sometimes new things break in unexpected ways * sometimes things get changed for the Rev. B and those revisions don’t get done in Virginia because they’ve already completed the Rev. A rollout. Also, there’s a secondary effect: because it’s the “default” region, it has a LOT more tenants, which means it probably has scaling and HA problems that none of the other regions do.
