Expanding Regional Services configuration flexibility for customers

Cloudflare has announced expanded capabilities for its Regional Services, allowing users to configure data locality and sovereignty across an increased set of defined regions. These new regions will be available for early access starting in late May 2024, with general availability planned for June 2024. The expansion aims to help customers meet their specific requirements for controlling where their traffic is handled while addressing data localization needs and legal obligations. The new offerings include options to restrict inspection of data to certain jurisdictions or exclude it from others, as well as a region committed to powering operations with renewable energy.
