Regions

enum places resources in regions (metro-scale locations) and availability zones inside those regions. Region ids are short codes that follow IATA airport codes, for example fra for Frankfurt.

RegionNameStatus

Availability zones use the region id plus a letter, for example fra-a.

Every project has a default region (and default zone). When you create a regional resource and omit the region, enum uses the project’s default. Explicit --region / region_id on the request always wins.

Today the live catalog region is fra. New projects default to Frankfurt unless you set another active region.

Object storage users and buckets are regional. Create them in a region with the API or CLI:

Terminal window
enumctl storage users create my-app --region fra
enumctl storage buckets create my-app-data --region fra

List the catalog with:

Terminal window
enumctl regions list
enumctl zones list --region fra

See the Regions CLI reference and the RegionService API.
