AWS announced that its Lambda MicroVM service is now available in four more AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (Thailand) and Europe (Spain). This adds up to 14 regions where developers can run isolated, stateful compute units that start almost instantly. The new locations let customers place code closer to users, which can lower latency and help satisfy data‑residency rules.

## The facts

- Launch date: 2026-10-22 ("Thu Oct 22 2026 09:06:00 GMT+0200")
- Total AWS Regions with Lambda MicroVMs: 14

## Why it matters

Developers can now host AI‑driven code or interactive tools nearer to Asian and European users, reducing response time and complying with local data rules.
