Hi,

Can anyone please explain what is the exact location, if App Engine App is created as 'europe-west'? Is it Belgium or Netherlands? If Firestore (or Datastore) is created as 'europe-west' that means it is multi regional and data will be stored across two regions (Belgium and Netherland). But for App engine it is really confusing since App Engine is a regional resource. Please explain.

Dasun.

In terms of GAE, the “europe-west” region refers to Belgium. In this case, “europe-west” == “europe-west1”.[1]

In terms of Datastore, “europe-west” refers to location next to the associated selection unless it’s the “eur3” Multi-region which refers to “europe-west1” and “europe-west4”, which are Belgium and The Netherlands respectively.[1][2]
