Deploying by Region
Specify the region when creating resources:
# Create instance in Lagos
fugoku create instance \
--name web-1 \
--plan vm-standard \
--image ubuntu-22.04 \
--region lagos-1
# Create instance in Frankfurt
fugoku create instance \
--name web-eu \
--plan vm-standard \
--image ubuntu-22.04 \
--region frankfurt-1Compliance & Data Residency
- Data residency is enforced by region. Resources in
lagos-1store data in Nigeria. Resources infrankfurt-1store data in Germany. - Cross-region replication is opt-in only.
- Audit logs are available for all regions via the Console or API.
