Functions and Firestore locations sync in Europe

[Guy Rom]

Hi,

It's common to extend Firestore with Functions so I find it a bit weird that for some reason when functions and firestore expanded to Europe regions it wasn't in the same region (functions run in west1 and firestore in west3).

So if you want to run in Europe you need a multi region deployment which creates unnecessary overhead (latency, cross-region traffic costs...).

Any plans to make functions and firestore available in the same Europe region any time soon?

Currently I deployed my production to US-central since I preferred to manage it in one region even though most of my users are non-US but I'm looking forward to migrate this project to Europe whenever available (which is probably going to be a painful process...).

Thanks.

I don't know the reasons why some regions are supported over others right now, but this would be another case for a feature request: https://firebase.google.com/support/contact/bugs-features/
