AWS China (Beijing) Region Adds the Third Availability Zone
Today, AWS China (Beijing) Region* has added a third Availability Zone (AZ) to support the high demand of our growing customer base. An Availability Zone (AZ) is one or more discrete data centers with redundant power, networking, and connectivity in an AWS Region. AZs give customers the ability to operate production applications and databases that are more highly available, fault tolerant, and scalable than would be possible from a single data center.
