Microsoft[Announcement] Service rolled out to 4 new geographies: Australia, Asia Pacific, India, and Brazil
Microsoftjanakiramn , Ian Pickering : Apologize for the delayed update. This issue has been resolved and you should be able to query from all regions.
MicrosoftChristian_Montoya Hi - just need to confirm if we have a region IN China for WVD? I have a customer with locations in China that require this service to be delivered from within China, not a region outside of China. Thanks!

Dale_Noleroth : No, we do not have service instances in the Azure geography of China. To clarify, even with service instances in China, service metadata is still stored in the U.S. today.
At the moment, it looks like the nearest geography to China that has service instances is Asia Pacific, which contains the East Asia and Southeast Asia regions.
Does Asia Pacific cover Southeast Asia or East Asia?
We have users in these regions and the Windows Virtual Desktop Experience Estimator is telling them that the India regions have the least latency.
I have also tested from Hong Kong, and it points me to Australia as the region with the least latency.This seems to indicate there are no gateways in Southeast Asia or East Asia.
So was the "Asia Pacific" announcement incorrect?Thanks

jmh_7 : Asia Pacific covers both Southeast Asia and East Asia, and we do have gateways in these regions.
One thing we've seen across other customers is that since we are based on Azure Traffic Manager right now, the routing is purely dependent on the DNS servers and where they are, as they report the public IP to the load balancer on connection (and the Experience Estimator). Could this also be a factor in your environment?
