Data Localization For Data Centers

Abstract

There is a new saying that data is gold for this generation. The foundation of the digital economy is entirely dependent on data. To organize, manage, store, and process the data, a specialized facility known as a data center is adopted by companies. Data localization, in simple terms, is a compliance process of restricting data flow from one country of origin to another. Today, 75% of all nations have deployed data localization rules at varying levels. These restrictions significantly impact data governance, IT footprints, data architectures, and interactions with local regulators. So, let’s understand what data localization brings with it for data centers.
