Amazon WorkSpaces Available in New Regions

In US East (Ohio), organizations can implement disaster recovery solutions, meet local data residency compliance mandates, and support regional workforces with consistent, low-latency access to their virtual desktop environments across varying network conditions.

What to do

  • Sign into the WorkSpaces management console and select the AWS Region of your choice.
  • Explore the product page and technical documentation for more information.
