AWS S3 Bucket with Multiple Regions

Maanit picture Maanit · Sep 6, 2015 · Viewed 12.1k times · Source


I have an AWS S3 bucket which is set for the US Standard region but I want it to work in Singapore too. I have researched but could not find a way for the same bucket to work i multiple regions.

It would be great if someone could find a solution!

Thanks,
Maanit

An S3 bucket exists in one region, not in multiple regions, but you can access that bucket from anywhere.

Now, while you can access a US Standard bucket quite happily from Singapore, the latency will be high so you might want to consider using CloudFront as a CDN.
