# Data regions

## Data residency

When you create a tenant, you must select a geographic location for data residency. This determines where your data is processed and stored, ensuring compliance and performance.\
\
We currently support two data regions:

* **European Economic Area (EEA) – Netherlands**
  * Deployed on Microsoft Azure
* **India – Mumbai**
  * Deployed on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

**Compliance Note:** Consult legal experts to ensure compliance with applicable regulations.
{% endhint %}

### Failover Support

* **Intra-Regional Failover** – supported within each data region to ensure reliability and resilience, while keeping data inside the selected region.
* **Cross-Regional Failover** – not supported. Data always remains within the selected region.
