Amazon Web Services plans to expand its services into Asia-Pacific in 2010.

The company said in a statement that it will offer "multiple availability zones" in Singapore in the first half of 2010. Other services will roll out across the region in the second half of 2010.

Amazon's lineup of services such as EC2, S3, SimpleDB, Relational Database Service and others will all be available.

According to Amazon, the expansion is being pushed so services can be closer to customers. Pricing will be announced when services launch next year.
