Know more about your Salesforce Instance and where it is Located at

You can find out your Salesforce Organization instance by viewing your browser address bar or viewing your Company Information.

Example URL:  https://ap9.salesforce.com
 

• The value before 'salesforce.com' is your Salesforce Instance. In this example the Salesforce Organization is located on NA9.
• If you are using a Sandbox the instance will differ, for example 'cs9.'

Find instance for My Domain

If you're using My Domain for the Salesforce Organization, you will not see the instance name by looking at the browser's address bar. Alternatively, we can use Windows Command Prompt or Mac OS' terminal and run the nslookup command.

In Windows   Hold the Windows key and press R. At the run dialog, type in cmd and press enter. After a command prompt appears, type in nslookup example.my.salesforce.com  (replace example with your My Domain). A few lines down you will see a line that starts with "Name:"   The naXX afterwards will be your instance name. In Mac OS   Search and open Terminal. After terminal appears, type in nslookup example.my.salesforce.com  (replace example with your My Domain). A few lines down you will see a line that starts with "Name:"   The naXX afterwards will be your instance name. Alternately when Domain Name is known: 1. Visit status.salesforce.com 2.  Where it states "Search Instance, Domain, POD, or MID"   please enter your domain name 3.  Click the magnifying glass to search. 4. In the Search Results you will find a list of My Domains with a box that shows  your Domain name a " | " and then an Instance. This is the instance your org is  located on.  Find Instance Location To check the location of the server, Salesforce-managed data centers for the aforementioned services in the following metropolitan areas: Chicago, Illinois, United States (USA) Dallas, Texas, United States (USA) Frankfurt, Germany (DE) Kobe, Japan (JPN) London, United Kingdom (UK) London North London West Paris, France (FRA) Phoenix, Arizona, United States (USA) Tokyo, Japan (JPN) Washington DC, United States (USA): Washington DC North Washington DC South In addition, salesforce have instances served from Amazon Web Services (AWS)  Cloud infrastructure in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
