Start the AppSheet server in the specified region

Currently, AppSheet servers are launched in different regions depending on the location of the app user.
This can cause problems when using Cloud SQL.

Cloud SQL does not require any cost for network egress within the same region, but it is necessary for network egress between regions.

In other words, if Cloud SQL is hosted in the US region, when a user in Europe uses the app, communication with the AppSheet server in the Europe region is performed, incurring network egress costs.

To avoid this problem, I would like the ability to control the startup of the AppSheet server.
In addition, I think it is preferable to use a multiple zone configuration for the region or zone to be specified.

Could you please comment on this matter?

The issue behind this Freature request is one that is difficult to notice when developing in North America.
On the other hand, if it occurs in the customer's environment, it is a specification that could result in a complaint.

Therefore I would like to pass the information on to the member responsible for Cloud SQL integration.
