AWS to launch data center region in New Zealand

Amazon Web Services will launch its first data center region in Auckland, New Zealand, by 2024, ZDNet reports. “When operational, the AWS region here will enable customers from startups to enterprises as well as government, education, and non-profit organisations to run applications and securely store data from data centres located right here on New Zealand soil. And they can do this knowing that we are committed to providing the highest standard of privacy and security protections,” New Zealand Public Sector Country Manager Tim Dacombe-Bird said.
