Let’s get to know GCP a little more. As mentioned in the previous Google Cloud Platforms blog, GCP is offering regional services and the platform is available in 24 regions as of now and a total of 74 zones. Each region has 3 zones while US central-1 alone has 4 zones.
But wait! What are these regions and zones?
Let’s delve in!
GCP Regions
The availability regions of GCP are the geographical locations where the GCP cloud data centers are present. Aforementioned, GCP has 24 regions where different regions offer various services in disparate qualities taking into consideration the latency, portfolios of solutions and pricing. Google is one emerging provider in terms of Cloud Platforms and the regions are expected to multifold in the days coming.
GCP Zones
The availability zone of GCP means an isolated data center within the bounds of a single region where the cloud resources are deployed. It’s where the GCP services originate and operate. Each zone encapsulates multiple data centers and a single data center is never shared between two or more availability zones. For the aspect of high availability and fault tolerance, GCP recommends deploying applications across multiple zones present in a region.
The more the regions and zones, the higher the availability of the service for a greater number of users. Google is now thriving to equalize the GCP zones and regions to that of contemporary cloud service providers AWS and Microsoft Azure. It isn’t that far for the tech giant to multiply the numbers.
Major areas of GCP service availability are (common for AWS and Azure as well)
- China
- North America
- Southeast Asia
- East Asia
- Europe
