For Cloud Server and Dedicated Server managed in the Cloud Panel
When you create a Cloud Server or a Dedicated Server in the Cloud Panel, you can select both the desired data centre and the desired Availability Zone.
Availability Zones consist of several physically isolated locations within a data centre. They are connected via dedicated, regional networks and are designed to be redundant. That way, your server is also available during maintenance, for example.
You can use the resources you have set up in the data centre with all availability zones. This applies, for example, to:
Load Balancers
Shared Storages
Private networks
VPN
Backups
