Amazon Web Services today announced that it has extended Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) to Europe. European developers and businesses can now run their Amazon EC2 instances in multiple Availability Zones in the EU to help achieve lower latency, operate closer to other resources like Amazon S3 in the EU, and meet EU data storage requirements when applicable. The new European Region for Amazon EC2 contains two Availability Zones enabling developers to easily and cost effectively run fault-tolerant applications with the same scalability, reliability and cost efficiency achieved with Amazon EC2 in the U.S.
