Summary

Two new AWS regions are live in production for BYOC clusters as of 2026-07-21 (ENG-1262, ENG-1263), validated end-to-end via certification runs in every environment:

  • ap-northeast-2 (Seoul)
  • ap-south-2 (Hyderabad)

Changes:

  • reference/partials/tiers.adoc: added both regions to the BYOC supported-regions AWS table (alphabetical). The Dedicated list is deliberately unchanged — these regions are BYOC-only.
  • get-started/pages/whats-new-cloud.adoc: July 2026 entry, matching the style of previous region announcements.

Note for docs team

Both regions offer only the arm64 tiers (tiers 1–9). ap-south-2 runs them on AWS Graviton2 (m6gd instances) rather than Graviton3 — the existing note "Redpanda supports compute-optimized tiers with AWS Graviton3 processors" may deserve a small generalization (e.g. "AWS Graviton processors"), but we've left that wording call to you.

Source of truth for region/tier data: tools/public-api-docs/master-data.yaml in redpanda-data/cloudv2 (refreshed in redpanda-data/cloudv2#28248).
