# GreenNode Regions and Availability Zones

## Overview

### What is a Region?

A Region is an independent geographic area where GreenNode deploys its infrastructure. Each region is designed to operate independently, ensuring your data is stored in the location you choose.

### What is an Availability Zone (AZ)?

An Availability Zone is one or more discrete data centers within a region, equipped with independent power, networking, and connectivity. Deploying applications across multiple AZs increases availability and fault tolerance.

### Naming Convention

* **Region**: Named by geographic location (e.g., HCM - Ho Chi Minh, HAN - Ha Noi, BKK - Bangkok)
* **AZ**: Combines region name + sequence number + letter (e.g., HCM-1A, HCM-1B, HAN-1A, BKK-1A)

## Considerations When Choosing Region and AZ

1. **Latency**: Choose a region close to your end users to reduce latency
2. **Data Compliance**: Some regulations require data to be stored in a specific geographic area
3. **High Availability**: Deploy applications across multiple AZs to ensure high availability
4. **Cost**: Service pricing may vary between regions
