Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) is now available in the Canada West (Calgary) Region (ca-west-1), allowing customers in the Canada West Region to build Cassandra-compatible applications with lower latency while keeping their data within the Region to meet data residency requirements.

Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) is a scalable, highly available, and managed Apache Cassandra–compatible database service. Amazon Keyspaces is serverless, so you pay for only the resources that you use and you can build applications that serve thousands of requests per second with virtually unlimited throughput and storage.

This regional expansion enables organizations in Canada to build highly scalable, low-latency applications using familiar Cassandra Query Language (CQL) without the operational burden of managing Cassandra clusters.
