Reducing the Complexity of Data Localization - The Last Great Cloud Transformation EP3

As organizations accelerate their cloud journey, many are losing visibility into and control over their IT environments. That’s a problem not only for securing apps and data, but also for complying with a growing number of government regulations. In particular, governments around the world are implementing data sovereignty and localization regulations such as GDPR in the EU, CCPA in California and many others regionally that define exactly where data must be processed and stored. Global organizations often have to comply with multiple regulations, while simultaneously trying to manage and protect their increasingly complicated environments.

How can organizations keep moving forward in the cloud, and also adhere to numerous data sovereignty and data localization laws? They need a new kind of cloud — one that transforms the network, restoring visibility and control for their complex environments. A connectivity cloud delivers that transformation. By integrating enterprise networks and the Internet, organizations regain control over their environments. They can comply with laws by setting precise rules for where data is processed and stored. And they can securely route data to the right places without the performance penalties of using distant core data centers. With the connectivity cloud, data sovereignty and localization laws do not have to be obstacles on the cloud journey.
