FMS on EC2 in Europe (Ireland)

I was looking at the pricings page when i noticed Europe is not listed. Is FMS on EC2 available in Europe at all?

And if not, which region would be best suited for NW europe? Is the connection good enough for bulk users?

This is somewhat important since we focus on europe.

Thanks,

B.

    Thanks for your answer, ill keep my hopes for a few months.


    Hi,

    I hope we have met your hopes. FMS 4.0.2 is now live on EMEA as well. Please avail the services.

    And thank you very much for your patience and wait. We hope to bring in quicker turn around times like this, always...

    Cheers  !

    Hi,

    I am sorry but EC2 is not available for Europe. If I am correct, as of now US West, Singapore and Japan are covered directly through EC2 and hence for you , all the three locations look equally far

    Please do let us know if you have any reservations regarding this unavailability and if you want some more discussion on this one.

    Thank you !

    Thanks for your reply, but this is sounds disappointing. The startring costs of setting up our own FMS servers and aquiring the licences is somewhat prohibitive  in stepping into the FMS (and most of all P2P) business, so the EC2 option was looking very attractive (for all the standard pro-cloud arguments).

    Can you elaborate on why FMS on EC2 is not available in all Amazon Regions? My guess is it's probably some legal or business issue?

    And regarding our options if we cannot run the standard Adobe provided AMI's:

    Can we still instal FMS on EC2 ourselves if we get normal FMS Enterprise licences? And if we'd do that, what will this mean for the amount of RTFMP connection cap like the one that is applied to the instances based on the Adobe AMIs?

    I'm bumping this one because i'd really like some insight into this. We've looked into the options offered on other hosted FMS services (well, looks like Influxis is the only real option) and it simply isn't the same.

    So the question remais: why is FMS on EC2 not availible overall Amazon regions (and specifically EU Ireland), and will it ever be?
