AWS Step Functions Regional Expansions

Posted on: May 9, 2018

AWS Step Functions is now available in two additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Seoul) and US West (N. California). AWS Step Functions makes it easier to coordinate the components of distributed systems, serverless applications, and microservices using visual workflows.

AWS Step Functions provides a graphical console to arrange and visualize the components of your application as a series of steps. Building applications from individual components that each perform a discrete function lets you scale and change applications quickly. Step Functions automatically triggers and tracks each step, and retries when there are errors, so your application executes in order and as expected.

For a complete list of regions where AWS Step Functions is offered, see AWS Regions. You can build your first state machine in minutes using the console, AWS SDKs, or an HTTP API. To learn more, see the AWS Step Functions webpage.
