Issue with the distributor service serverless.yml file

[raghunemani]

I picked the latest code ( where Chapter 2-3 are combined). I changed the region to us-east-1.
It would be nice if you could parameterize the region, it is not fair to expect everyone to be by default in eu-west-1
I am getting a Time out error:
Serverless Error ---------------------------------------

connect ETIMEDOUT 92.242.140.21:443

Hi Raghu,
Thanks for logging this issue. If you look at the serverless yaml files you should see that we follow this pattern:

custom:
region: ${env:AWS_DEFAULT_REGION, 'eu-west-1'}

This means that the region will be set to the AWS_DEFAULT_REGION environment variable but will default to eu-west-1 if that is not set. Open to suggestions though, how do think we should parameterise this?

Could you please supply me with a little more detail on the timeout. I don't really have enough information to address the issue from your comment above.

Thanks!
