Q

Region pairs

A

Each region is paired with another region within the same geography at least 300 miles away. Physical isolation reduces the likelihood of disasters/outages affecting both regions at once. Used to provide reliable services and data redundancy. Recovery of one region is prioritised out of every pair and updates are rolled out to paired regions sequentially to minimise downtime
