AWS新增台灣的edge機房，提供cloudfront (CDN) 及 route53 ( DNS) 這兩個服務

據非官方消息來源是放在中華電信的是方機房



因此放在cloudfront (CDN)上的東西現在存取會更快了，以前依據routing不同會到香港、東京、新加坡存取cloudfront的資料

New Edge Locations Added in Taipei and Rio de Janeiro for Amazon CloudFront and Amazon Route 53

We are excited to announce the launch of edge locations in Taipei, Taiwan and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This is our first edge location in Taiwan and our second edge location in Brazil (joining Sao Paulo). These new locations will improve performance and availability for end users of your applications being served by Amazon CloudFront and Amazon Route 53, and they bring the total number of AWS edge locations to 51 worldwide.

These new edge locations support all Amazon CloudFront functionality, including accelerating your entire website (static, dynamic and interactive content), live and on-demand streaming media, and security features like custom SSL certificates, private content and geo-restriction of content. They also support all Amazon Route 53 functionality including health checks, DNS failover, and latency-based routing.

The pricing for the edge location in Taipei is the same as that in Hong Kong, the Philippines, South Korea and Singapore, and the pricing for the edge location in Rio de Janeiro is the same as that in Sao Paulo. That means your end users in these regions will benefit from the lower latency without any additional costs.

We'd also like to invite you to join our "Using Amazon CloudFront to Protect Your Content Delivery via Geo-Restriction, Private Content, and Custom SSL Certificates" webinar on February 4th, 2014 at 10:00 AM Pacific (UTC-7). In this webinar, you can learn about several new features that give you the protection and control that you need to deliver your content securely to your viewers via Amazon CloudFront.
