About Numspot Regions, Endpoints and Sub-regions

Numspot is a cloud computing platform that provides flexible and scalable compute, storage and network infrastructure. In Numspot, resources are organized into regions and sub-regions.

Regions

A Cloud region is a geographical area in which Cloud resources are hosted. The different Numspot Cloud regions are independent of one another. Each Numspot Cloud region is made up of 3 sub-regions, or availability zones. Within a single region, the redundant network infrastructure set up by Numspot provides high bandwidth and low latency. This ensures optimal performance for your applications.

Sub-regions (or availability zone)

A sub-region corresponds to a data center. A sub-region is fully independent of the other sub-regions in the same region. This independence allows Numspot customers to deploy redundant applications across a region, by distributing the Cloud resources created across several sub-regions. Communication between the sub-regions of the same region is provided by an ultra-redundant high-performance network with high bandwidth to ensure optimal performance.

Sub-regions are designed to provide redundancy and high availability. By creating resources in several sub-regions, you can reduce the risk of data loss or service interruption.

Endpoints

Endpoints are URL used to access Numspot services in a given region. Each Numspot service has its own endpoint, which is made up of a service name and a region name.

https://(service name).(region name)/

Using endpoints

To use Numspot services in a given region, you must use the endpoints corresponding to that region. You can use the endpoints to access Numspot services through the Numspot API or the Numspot administration console.

Here is an example of an API command to create a VM (Virtual Machine) in the eu-west-2 region:

POST https://eu-west-2.api.numspotcloud.com/compute/spaces/{spaceId}/vms
{
    "imageId": "string",
    "KeypairName": "string",
    "maxVMsCount": 1,
    "minVMsCount": 1,
    "vmType": "string"
}

In this example, the eu-west-2.api.numspotcloud.com endpoint is used to access the VM creation service in the eu-west-2 region.
