That explains why the "global" services like IAM are actually in us-east-1. It does not explain why everyone is deploying on us-east-1. It is non-political, it just bugs me that people keep doing this because most examples are with us-east-1 region.
It’s easier for the CIA to keep tabs on them if it’s a short drive away; I just said that.
The DMV ( DC, MD, VA) area has power shortage issues. Now is not a good time to have this area at, or over capacity.
Could you elaborate on this? It's the first I'm hearing of the issue.
The state of Maryland shut down 5 power plants even after they were told this action was removing the backup network. It's not a matter of if the grid goes down, it's a when the grid goes down.
My guess is that there's a dropdown menu somewhere and us-east-1 is the first thing on that menu.
