Opt-in Regions
An opt-in Region is an AWS Region that’s deactivated by default. You can activate opt-in Regions can be activated in the AWS console. For additional information about opt-in Regions and how to activate them, refer to Managing AWS Regions in the AWS General Reference guide.
This solution supports four opt-in Regions:
-
Asia Pacific (Hong Kong)
-
Middle East (Bahrain)
-
Africa (Cape Town)
-
Europe (Milan)
When launched in an opt-in Region, this solution creates an S3 logging bucket for CloudFront in the US East (N. Virginia) Region. This is because CloudFront doesn’t deliver access logs to buckets in the supported opt-in Regions. For more information about S3 buckets, refer to Choosing an Amazon S3 bucket for your standard logs in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
To deploy in an opt-in Region, the S3 bucket(s) that you provide for the Source Buckets parameter must be in the same Region where you launch the CloudFormation template.
