# MariaDB Cloud for Transactions now Generally Available on AWS

We’re happy to announce the General Availability of [MariaDB Cloud](/products/cloud/) for Transactions on AWS.

As part of this release, MariaDB Cloud customers can easily deploy production grade transactional database services, including single node and multi-node for high availability.

*Deploy a transactional service in MariaDB Cloud on GCP or AWS.*

Customers login to the MariaDB Cloud portal and pick their public cloud provider, GCP or AWS, all from a single interface. MariaDB Cloud on AWS supports three AWS cloud regions: us-east-2, eu-central-1 and ap-southeast-1, essentially covering the entire planet for our AWS customers. As with GCP, users have access to advanced configuration changes through the [Configuration Manager](/products/skysql/docs/instructions/configuration-manager/#configuration-manager) to further customize the behavior of the database service.

### MariaDB Cloud Monitoring Now Supports Multi-Cloud

MariaDB Cloud Monitoring lets you monitor your database deployments in GCP and AWS, giving customers a true multi-cloud view in a single monitoring interface.
