Regions

Description

Region

Regions are divided from the dimensions of geographical location and network latency. Public services, such as Elastic IP (EIP), Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), Elastic Cloud Server (ECS), Elastic Volume Service (EVS), Object Storage Service (OBS), and Image Management Service (IMS), are shared within the same region. Regions are classified into universal and dedicated regions. A universal region provides universal cloud services for common tenants. A dedicated region provides specific services for specific tenants.
