Amazon Transcribe now supports streaming transcription in 3 more AWS regions

Today, we are excited to announce that Amazon Transcribe now supports streaming transcription in 3 more AWS regions -Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Mumbai) and Africa (Cape Town). [Amazon Transcribe](https://aws.amazon.com/transcribe/) is an automatic speech recognition (ASR) service that makes it easy for you to add speech-to-text capabilities to your applications. Live streaming transcription is used across industries in contact center applications, broadcast events, meetings captions, and e-learning. For example, contact centers use transcription to remove the need for note taking and improve agent productivity by providing recommendations for next best action. Companies also make their live sports events or real-time meetings more accessible with automatic subtitles. In addition, customers who have a large social media presence use Amazon Transcribe to help moderate content and detect inappropriate speech in user-generated content. With this launch, Amazon Transcribe real-time streaming is now available in the following AWS regions: US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Africa (Cape Town), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), South America (São Paulo), AWS GovCloud (US-East) and AWS GovCloud (US-West).
