Region availability for models in serverless API endpoints | Azure Machine Learning

In this article, you learn about which regions are available for each of the models supporting serverless API endpoint deployments.

Certain models in the model catalog can be deployed as a serverless API with pay-as-you-go billing. This kind of deployment provides a way to consume models as an API without hosting them on your subscription, while keeping the enterprise security and compliance that organizations need. This deployment option doesn't require quota from your subscription.

Alternatives to region availability

If most of your infrastructure is in a particular region and you want to take advantage of models available only as serverless API endpoints, you can create a workspace on the supported region and then consume the endpoint from another region.

Read Consume serverless API endpoints from a different workspace to learn how to configure an existing serverless API endpoint in a different workspace than the one where it was deployed.
