Amazon WorkSpaces Personal and Amazon WorkSpaces Core are now available in two additional AWS Regions

Amazon WorkSpaces Personal and Amazon WorkSpaces Core are now available in US East (Ohio) and Asia Pacific (Malaysia) AWS Regions. You can now provision WorkSpaces closer to your users, helping to provide in-country data residency and a more responsive experience. In US East (Ohio), organizations can also now implement disaster recovery solutions, meet local data residency compliance mandates, and support regional workforces with consistent, low-latency access to their virtual desktop environments across varying network conditions.

Amazon WorkSpaces Personal provides users with instant access to their desktops from anywhere. It allows users to stream desktops from AWS to their devices, and WorkSpaces Personal manages the AWS resources required to host and run your desktops, scales automatically, and provides access to your users on demand. Amazon WorkSpaces Core provides cloud-based, fully managed virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) accessible to third-party VDI management solutions via API.

To get started with Amazon WorkSpaces Personal or Amazon WorkSpaces Core, sign into the WorkSpaces management console and select the AWS Region of your choice. To learn more about Amazon WorkSpaces offerings, visit the product page and technical documentation.
