Tinybird is now available in AWS ap-east-1 (Hong Kong).

If you're building real-time applications for users in the Asia-Pacific region, latency matters. Every millisecond between your infrastructure and your users adds up, especially when you're serving thousands of concurrent requests.

Your data stays in Hong Kong. Queries resolve closer to your users. If you already have AWS infrastructure in ap-east-1 or need data residency in the region, this is a direct fit.

## What you get

Same Tinybird, closer to your users:

- **API base URL:** `https://api.ap-east-1.aws.tinybird.co`
- **Sub-second queries** over billions of rows, served from Hong Kong
- **Data residency** in the ap-east-1 region for compliance requirements
- All Tinybird features: ingestion from Kafka, S3, and the Events API, real-time materialized views, and low latency API endpoints

## Get started

Select **AWS ap-east-1** when you [sign up for Tinybird](https://www.tinybird.co/signup) or create a new Workspace. No additional configuration needed.
