Available Regions

Available Regions​

A cluster's region is set at creation and cannot be changed later, so check it against any data residency requirement before you launch. See the launch checklist.

Dedicated clusters are available in the following regions using the self-service dashboard:

  • AWS Europe (Frankfurt) eu-central-1
  • AWS US East (N. Virginia) us-east-1
  • AWS US West (Oregon) us-west-2

If you wish to launch a dedicated cluster in one of the following regions, we can provision it for you with an additional monthly fee. Please contact sales@phasetwo.io for more information.

  • AWS Europe (Ireland) eu-west-1
  • AWS Asia-Pacific (Mumbai) ap-south-1
  • AWS Asia-Pacific (Singapore) ap-southeast-1
  • GCP Europe (St. Ghislain) europe-west1
  • GCP Asia-Pacific (Jurong West) asia-southeast1
  • GCP South America (São Paulo) southamerica-east1
  • GCP US Central (Iowa) us-central1
  • GCP US East (South Carolina) us-east1
  • GCP US West (California) us-west2

Where your data stays​

Cluster data does not leave the region you chose. For a cluster in Frankfurt that means the Keycloak database, sessions, the event store and realm signing keys all stay in eu-central-1.

Backups for EU clusters are held in AWS Europe (Ireland) eu-west-1 — on every EU cluster, on every plan, at no additional cost. That is why Ireland appears in both lists above: running a primary cluster there is a paid option, while backing up an EU cluster there is standard. An EU deployment therefore stays inside the EU end to end, Frankfurt for the live cluster and Ireland for its backups.

For the full breakdown of which class of data lives where, who can reach it, and which of our own business systems run outside the EU, see EU data residency.

Global clusters​

For use cases that require global proximity to users and region failover behavior, we are currently in beta for our global clusters. Global server load balancing provides geographic region affinity and failover to connect your users with the closest, available instances.

These clusters are backed by CockroachDB multi-region clusters, which are hosted and operated by Cockroach Labs. There are two price tiers for global clusters, depending on your use of our shared CockroachDB clusters, or your own dedicated clusters.

A global cluster spans regions by design, so if you have a data residency requirement, confirm the region set with us before launching one.

Please contact sales@phasetwo.io to talk to us about your global cluster use case.
