Region Comparison Tool
Sydney → Melbourne
This tool fetches the CloudFormation resource spec from each Region and compares them, allowing you to see differences in service parity. It also compares the APIs, EC2 Instance Types and RDS/Aurora database engines that are available in the two selected Regions.
This comparison can be especially useful when assessing Regions you (or a customer) might be looking to expand into. It can also alert you to missing features when a service has been newly released in a Region and may not have feature parity on day one.
To use: choose any two regions and click the Go button:
Compare source region with destination region
The tool expects the more featured region to be on the left, so results are formatted with a slight bias towards that scenario.
You can this data as CSV.
The CloudFormation source data is here for ap-southeast-2 and here for ap-southeast-4
Service Summary: Sydney → Melbourne
What the icons mean (click the legend items to toggle the display of matching services)
Where either the Source or Destination Region shows a service as missing, we will show these icons to indicate the API status in that Region. If neither of these icon is shown it means no API was found.
If the data in this tool is ambiguous, you should check the console to see which services (and service features) are supported.
