Region

As explained in Build Python Web Apps with Streamlit

A cloud region is a geographically distinct location containing data centers where cloud services operate.

A cloud region is a geographically distinct location containing data centers where cloud services operate. During Elastic Beanstalk setup, choose the region where the application will run. section 12.3.6

Choose a region near most users when possible. Geography affects latency, so users in the eastern United States might use us-east-2 (Ohio), while users in India might use ap-south-1 (Mumbai). section 12.3.6

How Build Python Web Apps with Streamlit covers it

How deep it goes
Defines regions as physical data center locations and explains their latency implications, without discussing regional infrastructure internals.
Examples
Uses us-east-2 in Ohio and ap-south-1 in Mumbai as location choices in the EB CLI.
What you can do after
Operate/configure Elastic Beanstalk deployment by selecting a region suited to the application’s users.
How it connects
Connects regions with AWS services, Elastic Beanstalk, deployment, geography, and latency.
