# Region Availability

> Archil regions and availability

Archil disks are available in multiple regions across AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). When creating a disk, you can select the region that best suits your needs. For optimal performance, we recommend choosing a region closest to where your compute resources are located.

## AWS regions

Archil disks are available in the following AWS regions:

* **US East (N. Virginia)** - `aws-us-east-1`
* **US West (Oregon)** - `aws-us-west-2`
* **EU West (Ireland)** - `aws-eu-west-1`

## Google Cloud Platform regions

Archil disks are available in the following GCP regions:

* **US Central (Iowa)** - `gcp-us-central1`

<Note>
  We are continuously expanding our regional presence. If you need Archil in a region not listed here, please [contact us](https://archil.com/contact).

## Serverless execution availability

[Serverless execution](/compute/serverless-execution) (`disk.exec` and `disk.grep`) is available only in the AWS regions:

| Region                | Code              | Disk storage | Serverless execution |
| --------------------- | ----------------- | ------------ | -------------------- |
| US East (N. Virginia) | `aws-us-east-1`   | ✅            | ✅                    |
| US West (Oregon)      | `aws-us-west-2`   | ✅            | ✅                    |
| EU West (Ireland)     | `aws-eu-west-1`   | ✅            | ✅                    |
| US Central (Iowa)     | `gcp-us-central1` | ✅            | —                    |

A disk created in a region without serverless execution works for storage, but calling `exec` returns **`Exec is not enabled`** (and `grep` returns `Grep is not enabled`). If you plan to run commands on a disk, create it in one of the AWS regions above.
