Supported regions, data platforms, and features

Suggest Edits

Sigma supports various cloud platforms and regions, connections to many data platforms, and some features are supported only on specific data platforms.

Supported cloud platforms and regions

Your Sigma organization is hosted on one of the following cloud platforms:

Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Microsoft Azure
Google Cloud (GCP)

Your cloud deployment is chosen when your Sigma organization is created, and cannot be migrated or changed after creation.

💡
If you're unsure which cloud platform hosts your organization, you can reference it in the Administration portal (if you're assigned the Admin account type). Go to Administration > Account > General Settings, then locate the Site section. The Cloud field identifies the platform hosting your organization.

The following table lists the specific supported cloud regions:

Location	Supported region	API endpoint
United States West	us-west-2 (primary) us-east-1 (disaster recovery)	aws-api.sigmacomputing.com
United States East	us-east-1 (primary) us-west-2 (disaster recovery)	api.us-a.aws.sigmacomputing.com
Canada	ca-central-1	api.ca.aws.sigmacomputing.com
Europe	eu-central-1 (primary) eu-north-1 (disaster recovery)	api.eu.aws.sigmacomputing.com
Australia and APAC	ap-southeast-2	api.au.aws.sigmacomputing.com
United Kingdom¹	eu-west-2 (primary) eu-west-1 (disaster recovery)	api.uk.aws.sigmacomputing.com

Supported data platforms and feature compatibility

Sigma connects to the following data platforms:

AlloyDB
Azure SQL Database (Beta)
Amazon Redshift
Databricks
Google BigQuery
MySQL
PostgreSQL
Snowflake
Starburst Galaxy
SQL Server 2022 and Azure SQL Managed Instance (Beta)

Connections support most Sigma features; however, due to technical variations (like SQL dialects, architecture, and security) some features are not currently compatible with all data platforms. The following table lists current feature limitations for each connection type.
