Amazon Web Services (AWS) is expanding in the Middle East, bringing new infrastructure to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with an AWS Region opening in the first half of 2022. This new Region in the UAE will consist of three Availability Zones, giving local customers more choice and flexibility to leverage advanced cloud technologies and the ability to run their workloads and store data locally while serving end users with even lower latency.
The new Region adds to our continued launches and investment in the Middle East as it joins the AWS Middle East Region in Bahrain, which has been running since 2019.
