    SDK configuration examples

    Set the region ID and endpoint when you initialize the PAI SDK client.

    Python SDK - US West region

    from pai.client import Client

# Configure for US West (Silicon Valley) region
client = Client(
    access_key_id='<your-access-key-id>',
    access_key_secret='<your-access-key-secret>',
    region_id='us-west-1',  # Specify region
    endpoint='https://pai.us-west-1.aliyuncs.com'  # US endpoint
)

# For EAS service in US region
eas_endpoint = 'https://pai-eas.us-west-1.aliyuncs.com'
service_name = 'your-model-service'

    Python SDK - EU region

    from pai.client import Client

# Configure for EU (Germany Frankfurt) region
client = Client(
    access_key_id='<your-access-key-id>',
    access_key_secret='<your-access-key-secret>',
    region_id='eu-central-1',  # Germany Frankfurt
    endpoint='https://pai.eu-central-1.aliyuncs.com'
)

    Choose a region

    Consider the following factors:

    • Data residency: Match the region to your data storage location to reduce costs and latency.

    • Latency: Select the region closest to your end users.

    • Service availability: Not all services are available in every region. Check the tables above.

    • Pricing: Costs vary by region.

    • Compliance: Regulatory requirements may restrict region choices (e.g., GDPR requires EU regions).

    Recommendation: For international users, us-west-1 (Silicon Valley) provides the broadest service coverage.

    Troubleshooting

    Common region configuration issues and solutions.

    Error: Cannot select US/EU region in SDK configuration

    Symptoms: SDK connection fails or times out when targeting a US or EU region.

    Root cause: Missing or incorrect endpoint parameter in SDK initialization.

    Solution:

    1. Look up the correct endpoint in the region-endpoint mapping table.

    2. Set both region_id and endpoint in SDK initialization.

    3. Verify that your access key has permissions for the target region.

    Example for US West region:

    client = Client(
    access_key_id='your-key',
    access_key_secret='your-secret',
    region_id='us-west-1',
    endpoint='https://pai.us-west-1.aliyuncs.com'  # Required
)

    Prevention: Confirm region and service availability before development.

    Error: Service not available in my region

    Symptoms: API returns "Service not found" or "Service not supported".

    Root cause: Not all PAI services are available in every region.

    Solution:

    1. Check "Available Services" column in region-endpoint mapping table.

    2. Use the nearest region that supports the required service.

    3. For cross-region data access, configure VPC peering or transfer data through OSS.

    Example: DLC is not available in eu-central-1 (Frankfurt). Use us-west-1 or an Asia Pacific region instead.

    Prevention: Verify service availability before purchasing resources.

    Error: Region mismatch between compute and storage

    Symptoms: Job fails with "Cannot access OSS bucket" or "Permission denied" despite correct credentials.

    Root cause: PAI compute and OSS bucket are in different regions. Cross-region access requires internet transfer, which may be blocked.

    Solution:

    1. Create the OSS bucket in the same region as your PAI workspace.

    2. If cross-region access is required, enable public read on the OSS bucket (not recommended for sensitive data).

    3. Alternatively, migrate data to a same-region OSS bucket before running jobs.

    Prevention: Keep compute and storage resources in the same region.
