Microsoft's GitHub to Allow EU Data Storage for Enterprise Cloud Customers Starting October 29
Sep 24, 2024, 11:05 AM
GitHub, a subsidiary of Microsoft, will allow enterprise cloud customers to store their data in the European Union starting October 29. This move, reported by TechCrunch and CNBC, is part of a broader data sovereignty push, enabling organizations to keep their critical and sensitive code within the EU. The initiative aims to address the growing need for data residency solutions in a digital global economy, providing enterprises with the option to store their most valuable assets in their preferred region. This development is particularly significant for European organizations facing stringent data protection regulations. Microsoft's stock ($MSFT) was down 0.2% pre-market following the announcement.
