#13The availability of instance type also hints the future for other AWS regions.
E.g. T2, M4, C4, I2, D2, and R3 are available, but not M3 or C3.

#14On the other hand, OVH will have 12 more DC open this year, Starting with Portland and Ashburn in US, then Singapore and Australia.
AWS have at least 32 DCs - all regions have a minimum of two data centres for proper ha. There are four more scheduled to come online this year, India and UK.
If you think ovh and aws are comparable in anything but the very broadest terms you've not understood what AWS are offering.

It's not uncommon to use multiple providers, that way you don't need to rely on a single provider having multiple DC's in every location you want a presence.
Plus you know, less SPOF.

Probably one run by KT (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KT_Corporation). English website here: https://en.ucloudbiz.olleh.com/

They are not directly comparable of course.
OVH currently has 15 DC, of those additional 12, most of them are in new region, Australia, Singapore, Germany, US, and I think Japan. That will make 27 DC.
This isn't say they are comparable by size. Not at all. But you make it sounds like OVH is a small player. Linode, Digital Ocean are medium size. According to Netcraft AWS being first, DO recently became second, and OVH being third. But with the lots of $5 - $20VM DO host, those are VM numbers, compared to the Server Size OVH host.

I believe Ohio (3 AZs, IIRC) is supposed to come online in 2016 also, but I could be mistaken.
