AWS Availablity Zone

  • Each AWS region has one or more availability zone.

  • Each Availability Zone is a fully isolated partition of AWS infrastructure.

  • Each Availability Zone consists of one or more data centers.

  • They are designed for fault isolation.

  • AWS recommends replicating data and resources across availability zone for resiliency.

Resiliency is the ability of something to return to its original size and shape after being compressed or deformed.
