Merry Christmas to my Italian friends! Google has left a gift under the tree: ve2 nodes are now available in the Milan (europe-west8) region, specifically zone b.

Expansion Details

The europe-west8 region has been growing fast. Adding the high-performance ve2 SKU means Italian enterprises can now run their most demanding database and AI workloads on local soil with fully compliant, low-latency infrastructure.

Summary

If you are running workloads in Frankfurt or Zurich just for the ve2 hardware, you can now repatriate them to Milan.
