Region

When selecting a region, consider the following factors:

• Location

  For lower network latency and quick resource access, select the region nearest to your workloads or target users.

  For example, if your workload is in Beijing, you can select CN North-Beijing4.

  If your workload is in Asia Pacific (outside the Chinese mainland), you can select AP-Bangkok or AP-Singapore.

  Huawei Cloud provides services in many regions around the world. You can select a region and an AZ based on requirements. For more information, see Global Products and Services.

• Resource Pricing

  The resource prices may vary in different regions. For details, see EIP Pricing Details.

Yes.

You can visit https://en.ipip.net/ip.html to query the region of your EIPs.

• The region of an EIP identified using a third-party website may be different from the region that the EIP belongs to.
• If the region identified using another third-party website is different from the one identified using https://en.ipip.net/ip.html, use the region identified using https://en.ipip.net/ip.html.
• If the region identified using https://en.ipip.net/ip.html is different from the one you selected when purchasing the EIP, use the region you had selected during EIP purchase.
• If your service is adversely affected because the region of your EIP cannot be determined, submit a service ticket.

To know more about the region of EIPs, submit a service ticket.

No. EIPs can only be bound to resources in the same region. For example, an EIP in CN East-Shanghai1 cannot be bound to a resource in CN North-Beijing4.
