region: "us-east" (or pick “US East” in the dashboard) on every create call. The List Regions endpoint returns the current set programmatically.
What region scope means
A region is a hard boundary — resources from different regions cannot share networking or be moved between regions in place.Picking a region
With one region today, the choice is straightforward —us-east. When this matters more in the future:
- Latency — pick the region closest to your users. Round-trip time to a region is the floor of how fast your service can respond
- Data residency — if you have customer-data-locality requirements, the region determines where the data is stored
- Cross-region traffic — same-region traffic between Raff resources is free; cross-region (when other regions exist) goes over the public internet and counts against egress
Migrating a VM to a different region
You can’t change a running VM’s region. The migration path:- Snapshot the source VM (or save its OS disk as a Custom Image)
- Create a new VM in the target region from that image
- Restore data from any volume snapshots or backups, or copy data via SCP/SFTP/rsync
- Update DNS / load balancer / clients to point at the new VM
- Delete the source VM when the cutover is done — unused subscription time credits back to your balance
