Ideal two-region active-active serving capacity factor for loss of either equal region
2× serving capacityderived
| Value kind | derived — Derived values are guide calculations; their result is only as fixed as the stated inputs, scope, and method. |
|---|---|
| Scope | Equal compatible regional throughput, full displaced-peak service, no second simultaneous regional loss. Storage, transfer, licenses, reservations and operating costs are priced separately. |
| As of | 2026-09 |
| Source | AWS supplies recovery-pattern definitions; capacity factor is a guide derivation. No AWS price multiplier is asserted. |
| Derivation | If total peak requires L units and either of two regions must serve L after peer loss, installed capacity is 2L. With r equal regions and one-region-loss protection, ideal installed capacity is rL/(r−1), before rounding and performance headroom. |
