Two New Locations for Amazon Simple Email Service

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) makes it easy and cost-effective for you to send transactional emails, marketing emails, or any other high-quality messages to your customers.

This month we expanded the SES footprint to a pair of new AWS Regions. You can now send emails from any of the following endpoints:

• US East (Northern Virginia)
• US West (Oregon) – New
• EU (Ireland) – New

An important point to note is that your production access status, sending limits, and SES identity-related settings are specific to a given region. Because the settings for each region are separate, you will need to set up your account (for example, request production access) in each region you want to send from. The account settings in your existing region will remain the same. For more information, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.

You can learn more about the new regions and the entire setup process on the Amazon SES Blog.
