# Region Endpoints
<a name="Endpoints"></a>

 To improve latency and to store data in a location that meets your requirements, Amazon SimpleDB enables you to select different Region endpoints. 

For information about the Amazon SimpleDB Regions and endpoints, go to [Regions and Endpoints](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#sdb_region) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

For example, to create a SimpleDB domain in Europe, you would generate a REST request similar to the following: 

```
https://sdb.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/?Action=CreateDomain
&DomainName=MyDomain
&<authentication parameters>
```

Each Amazon SimpleDB endpoint is entirely independent. For example, if you have two domains called "MyDomain," one in sdb.amazonaws.com and one in sdb.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com, they are completely independent and do not share any data.
