Global Infrastructure
Amazon Web Services serves hundreds of thousands of customers in more than 190 countries.
We are steadily expanding global infrastructure to help our customers achieve lower latency and higher throughput, and to ensure that their data resides only in the Region they specify. As our customers grow their businesses, AWS will continue to provide infrastructure that meets their global requirements.
