Amazon unit taps Ningxia partner in Chinese expansion

Amazon Web Services Inc. has teamed up with cloud services provider Ningxia Western Cloud Data Technology Co. Ltd. to launch a second AWS location in China's Ningxia region.

Under a strategic partnership, Ningxia Western Cloud Data will operate and provide cloud services from AWS' Ningxia region, the Amazon.com Inc. unit said.

At launch, the Western Cloud Valley will have two availability zones, or tech infrastructure housed in separate locations.

AWS expects it to boost development in the city of Zhongwei.

Amazon opened its first AWS region in China with Beijing Sinnet Technology Co. Ltd. as partner. The e-commerce giant sold the cloud business to Sinnet for up to 2 billion Chinese yuan in November.

As of Dec. 11, US$1 was equivalent to 6.62 Chinese yuan.
