OpenObserve announces the general availability of a new cloud region: Asia Pacific South-1 (Mumbai, India), hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Organizations operating across India and the broader APAC market have long needed a local observability destination to keep telemetry close to their workloads. Previously, routing logs, metrics, and traces to North American or European infrastructure introduced significant network latency, elevated cross-region egress costs, and made it difficult to satisfy regional data residency expectations. The Asia Pacific South-1 region removes these obstacles by keeping all ingested telemetry within the AWS ap-south-1 availability zones.

This expansion is designed for teams running workloads on the AWS backbone in the region, enabling low-latency ingestion for local services and seamless integration with AWS-native tooling such as CloudWatch, Kinesis, and native application instrumentation. Enterprises that must demonstrate data sovereignty to regulators, auditors, and customers can now centralize their logging, metrics, and traces while ensuring observability traffic stays within India.

The Asia Pacific South-1 (Mumbai) region is available immediately for all OpenObserve Cloud customers. To get started, select the Asia Pacific South-1 region from the region selector at ap1.openobserve.ai when creating your OpenObserve Cloud organization, or visit openobserve.ai to begin a free trial.
