Azure provides the most extensive global footprint of any cloud provider and is rapidly opening new regions. This article contains a list of all regions in the Azure public cloud, their paired region status, physical location, geography, and availability zone support.
Note
Even when a region provides availability zones, some services might not support them in that region. To learn about region support for availability zone-enabled services, refer to the Azure service reliability guides.
