ADVREL03-BP02 Choose AWS Regions that meet your legal and disaster recovery requirements
Select AWS Regions based on compliance and disaster recovery needs. It emphasizes the importance of understanding data jurisdiction requirements, particularly for advertising systems, and explains how regional choices impact both regulatory compliance (like GDPR) and system redundancy.
Implementation guidance
Depending on the resiliency design of your advertising system, some components may reside in a different Region for redundancy purposes. Consider compliance needs for your in-transit and at-rest data.
Key AWS services
