Astra DB Serverless database regions and maintenance schedules

Astra DB Serverless supports multiple Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud (GCP), and Microsoft Azure regions. Availability, pricing, and supported database types vary by region.

When you create a database, choose a region geographically close to your users for lower latency. If you need availability in multiple regions, see Deploy an Astra DB Serverless database to multiple regions.

Databases are triple replicated across three availability zones (AZ) within each region.
