First Azure Region Available in Neon

Neon has announced the beta availability of its first Azure region, East US 2, marking a significant step in its integration with Microsoft's cloud platform. Users can now deploy Neon databases in this region and will soon have access to more Azure regions as part of Neon's ongoing roadmap. During the beta phase, which will last a few weeks, users on Launch, Scale, and Business plans can test the service without additional costs beyond their plan's usage limits. However, it is advised to use the service for testing and prototyping rather than critical workloads, as the regular service level agreement does not apply. Neon is also available as a native integration in the Azure Marketplace, and the company is actively seeking user feedback to enhance its Azure offerings. The beta launch signifies the start of a deeper partnership with Microsoft and an effort to more tightly integrate Neon within the Azure ecosystem.
