Rio de Janeiro , Brazil - 4 May 2023; Amazon Web Services branding, during day three of Web Summit Rio 2023 at Riocentro in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The new AWS region in Taiwan will enable firms to capitalize on the cloud and "build with AWS technologies like compute, storage, databases, analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence," said Prasad Kalyanaraman, vice president of infrastructure services at AWS, in a statement. An AWS region is a physical location where data centers are clustered. An availability zone is an isolated and geographically separate location with one or more data centers with independent power, cooling, and physical security. AWS had opened a region in the Indonesia capital of Jakarta in December 2021.
