Amazon Keyspaces, a serverless, fully managed Apache Cassandra-compatible database service, became available in two new Asia Pacific regions. This facilitates development of Cassandra-based applications with improved latency and compliance with local data residency laws for organizations in Malaysia and Thailand.

The regional launches include all existing features such as point-in-time recovery, multi-region replication, change data capture streams, and IPv6, supporting scalable deployments without the operational overhead of managing Cassandra clusters. This expansion fosters broader adoption in Asia Pacific markets.
