Overview

This object represents an Amazon EC2 region, and is returned by VM::EC2->describe_regions().

Methods

These object methods are supported:

 regionName      -- Name of the region, e.g. "eu-west-1"
 regionEndpoint  -- URL endpoint for AWS API calls, e.g. 
                    "ec2.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com"
 zones           -- List of availability zones within this
                    region, as VM::EC2::AvailabilityZone
                    objects.

Note that you should prefix the endpoint with http:// or https:// before using it to change the VM::EC2 endpoint with the endpoint() call. If you do not do so, then https:// will be assumed.

String overloading

When used in a string context, this object will interpolate the regionName.
