#12What’s the status on Los Angeles? Been waiting a long time for that one. Anyone know where it’s located?
Within a block of 1 Wilshire probably.

#13Not on the topic of the article, but why would this post get over 30 votes in two hours? Is this news that exciting?
Having the third zone means you can now run some pretty important services in Singapore, including Cloud Spanner, Cloud SQL, Cloud Bigtable, and Managed Instance Groups.
Also, connectivity within APAC is generally not great, you really want to avoid those round-trips to Tokyo or the US if you can.
Disclaimer: I work at GCP, but had nothing to do with this particular launch.

Ah sorry, on mobile and I misread. Regions for Google are physical different locations. Zones are separate partions of a given region with their own power, networking, etc. I believe.
