# Announcing Munich Zone General Availability

We are happy to announce the availability of a new zone in Munich (Germany) to all Exoscale customers: **DE-MUC-1**, our 6th in Europe 🇩🇪

Both our [Compute](https://www.exoscale.com/compute/) and [S3 API compatible Object Storage](https://www.exoscale.com/object-storage/) products will be available in Munich alongside all additional services such as Private Networks, [Private Connect](https://www.exoscale.com/virtual-private-cloud/), Elastic IP, etc.

Reinforcing our growing presence in Germany, with the full backing of our parent company A1 Digital, this new zone will be our second in Germany after our [`DE-FRA-1` - Frankfurt zone](https://www.exoscale.com/blog/announcing-frankfurt-zone/).

Thanks to this new zone we enable enterprises and SaaS companies to deploy resilient multi-zone applications while keeping data and services in their country.
Combining a [high standard SLA](https://www.exoscale.com/terms/#4-service-level-agreement-sla), advanced features such as [Anti Affinity Groups](https://community.exoscale.com/documentation/compute/anti-affinity-groups/) and now [multiple zones located in Germany](https://www.exoscale.com/datacenters/germany/), it is truly possible to ensure
business critical applications run around the clock, minimizing risk factors at scale.
