Regions

DockHive runs in eight regions. Choose a region close to your users: requests travel a shorter distance, so your app feels faster.

Region	Location
us	United States (Los Angeles)
eu	Europe (London)
de	Germany (Frankfurt)
asia	Asia (Singapore)
africa	South Africa (Johannesburg)
ng	Nigeria (Lagos)
abuja	Nigeria (Abuja)
pt	Portugal (Lisbon)

Apps, databases, n8n workspaces, HivePods and tunnels are available in every region. Hive Buckets has a global S3 endpoint plus regional ones; see Endpoints and regions.

Picking a region

• Console: apps and databases have a Deployment Region menu, n8n has a Region menu, and HivePods have Choose Datacenter Region cards. Each region shows its status: Healthy, Degraded or Unavailable.
• CLI: hivepod create --region eu for pods. hivepod deploy keeps the region of the app it redeploys.
• Tunnel: dockhive expose 3000 --region eu, or leave the default auto to use the fastest region from where you are. See Names and regions.
• API: send X-Region: eu or ?region=eu. See Using the API.

A resource stays in the region where you created it.

Addresses work everywhere

Your app’s address (<name>.dockhive.app) works the same wherever the app runs; you don’t need a regional hostname.

Plan limits are global

Your plan’s limits (for example, the number of apps or HivePods) count everything you run across all regions combined. See Plans.
