The instructions for creating a cluster say that the closest region should be selected, but the only region available in the dialog is “Europe West”. Should there be regions available in the US? Will “Europe West” offer acceptable performance?
Hey @Chuck_Irvine
afaik we support also other regions, but potentially not for free/trial users. I guess you would get this option after you signed the paid version.

I’ve started the tutorials from scratch this morning, and the first instructions for creating a cluster make no mention of selecting a region. The mention of the “closest region” comes later in the tutorial somewhere. So, what you say makes sense.
I do wonder though how responsiveness might be different with a region in the US.
Sorry but I can’t answer this for sure, but it is likely that the latency is better if you use a closer data center.
