Why you should host on Amazon West and East

Jan 11, 2022

Where to host?

Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides a number of advantages for hosting your website or web application. One of the main advantages is that you can choose to host your content in either the AWS East (Northern Virginia) or West (Oregon) Region.


Each region offers different pricing and features, so it's important to choose the one that best suits your needs. For example, if you're targeting users in North America, you'll probably want to choose the AWS East Region. On the other hand, if you're targeting users in Europe or Asia-Pacific, you'll probably want to choose the AWS West Region.


Here are some other things to keep in mind when choosing an AWS region:


  • The East and West Regions are physically separate, so you'll need to replicate your data across both regions if you want to achieve true high availability.


  • The East Region is generally cheaper than the West Region, so it's a good choice if cost is a major concern.


  • The West Region has more features and services than the East Region, so it's a better choice if you need access to the latest and greatest AWS features.


Ultimately, the best way to decide which AWS region is right for you is to experiment with both and see which one works better for your particular needs.
