Where are AWS data center locations listed?

Question

I'm failing at Google search today. Is there a page that lists geolocations of the various Amazon AWS server farms?

I want to use this data to pick the appropriate farm for a client on a web app, CDN-style.

(This isn't programming, but it's for the purpose of programming, and I thought it would be useful to have this question answered for public consumption.)

Solution 1

Each service's detail page (e.g. http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/, http://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/) provides this information.

Solution 2

Very late to the party, but in case anyone else has the same question, we've done some work to map AWS regional data centers by the fastest connection to each country (and state in US):

The code used to this has been open sourced:

WikiLeaks - AmazonAtlas

Confidential AWS datacenters location has been leaked:

11 October 2018, WikiLeaks publishes a "Highly Confidential" internal document from the cloud computing provider Amazon. The document from late 2015 lists the addresses and some operational details of over one hundred data centers spread across fifteen cities in nine countries

datacenters.com

The best reference I found for tracking down the individual data center locations is datacenters.com's locations page: https://www.datacenters.com/locations

From there you can see locations and details of individual data centers like AWS Ashburn

The other reference I cam across is from this blog post from domenech: Amazon Web Services Google Maps: World Domination Map

You're right. The complete information is now posted at docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html
