Record Notes

AWS EU (Paris), programmatic region `eu-west-3`, is a cloud-region record rather than a single verified data-center facility. AWS documentation records the Europe (Paris) Region launch on December 18, 2017, and AWS launch material described it as located in the Paris area with three Availability Zones, Paris-area data centers, edge locations, and Direct Connect access through Telehouse Voltaire, Equinix Paris, and Interxion Paris. ADCI removes the legacy selected 300 MW value and central Paris point because opened AWS sources do not disclose a public aggregate regional power capacity or support treating the region as one mapped facility. This record stays public as a France cloud-region monitor target for AI and cloud infrastructure, with physical-facility capacity counted only when source-backed facility evidence is available.
