The new 'B' regions

Hey,

Quick question: I’ve noticed regions like:

lhr(B)
ams(B)

Just wondered is that the beginning of availability zones (A,B,C) within a region? Or is (B) simply ‘Backup’?

It would be neat to have AZ if that’s not already in the works.

Yeah B is for backup. We have a concept of redundancy zones for volumes but we haven’t exposed it yet.
