AWS Regions
Choosing the right AWS region
AWS regions are distinct data centers in different geographical locations that you can use to build applications. Amazon SES can be used in the following regions:
- US East (N. Virginia) (us-east-1)
- US East (Ohio) (us-east-2)
- US West (N. California) (us-west-1)
- US West (Oregon) (us-west-2)
- EU (Frankfurt) (eu-central-1)
- EU (Ireland) (eu-west-1)
- EU (London) (eu-west-2)
- EU (Milan) (eu-south-1)
- EU (Paris) (eu-west-3)
- Europe (Stockholm) (eu-north-1)
- Canada (Central) (ca-central-1)
- Asia Pacific (Mumbai) (ap-south-1)
- Asia Pacific (Seoul) (ap-northeast-2)
- Asia Pacific (Singapore) (ap-southeast-1)
- Asia Pacific (Sydney) (ap-southeast-2)
- Asia Pacific (Tokoyo) (ap-northeast-1)
- Middle East (Bahrain) (me-south-1)
- South America (São Paulo) (sa-east-1)
When configuring BigMailer to use your Amazon SES account, you can choose any of these regions. Which region you should choose depends on a few factors. If you've already been using SES in a particular region, you'll probably want BigMailer to use that region. Or, if you have an application using other AWS services in one of those regions, you'll probably want BigMailer to use the same region. Otherwise, choosing the default "US East (N. Virginia)" is probably your best bet.
