Is AWS pricing API available in other regions?

Question

What are the available regions for this endpoint- https://pricing.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/offers/v1.0/aws/index.json?
I see from the documentation that it is ap-south-1 and us-east-1. We have deployments in AU, and APAC and the latency of this endpoint is sometimes very high because we have to connect to us-east-1 every time.

Answer

The pricing endpoint you referenced - https://pricing.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/offers/v1.0/aws/index.json - is currently only available in two regions: us-east-1 and ap-south-1.

Connecting to this endpoint from other regions like AU or APAC can sometimes result in higher latency.

The Service endpoints and quotas page provides a comprehensive list of all supported regions for each AWS service.

Some things you could try to improve performance from other regions:

* Check if the pricing data can be cached locally for some time to avoid frequent calls to the endpoint.
* See if the pricing information needed by your application can be retrieved in bulk for future use rather than per request.
* Consider setting up a CloudFront distribution in front of the pricing endpoint to take advantage of CloudFront's global edge network for lower latency access.
