Cloud providers (region maps)
- AWS Regions: Global regions and Availability Zones list, including Middle East regions as published by AWS. Official page
- Azure products by region: Microsoft’s matrix of Azure services by region. Official page
- Google Cloud locations: Google’s map and list of cloud locations. Official page
- Oracle Cloud regions: Public cloud regions list from Oracle. Official page

We name countries in conversation with clients; when a vendor labels a region with a city name, treat that as the vendor’s label and re-check their current documentation.

- PostgreSQL: Open-source relational database you can host where you control infrastructure. Official site
