Amazon Web Services Adds New Datacenter Region In UK.

Amazon has announced that it is opening a datacenter region in the UK.

This new region will provide customers with quick, low-latency access to websites, mobile applications, games, SaaS applications, big data analysis, Internet of Things (IoT) applications, and more.

The advantages of a UK regional center include even lower latency and strong data sovereignty to local users. The new datacenter region will be Amazon's third in the European Union after Frankfurt and Dublin.
Amazon CTO Werner Vogels said - "New region will open sometime next year at the earliest -- or possibly not until sometime in 2017."
