Data regions are critical for ensuring many customers can meet their own internal requirements, as well as other legal, regulatory, and data sovereignty requirements by controlling the geographical location of their data at rest. Expanding these controls to the Gemini app allows our customers to adopt Gemini broadly in their organization with confidence that their data is being processed and stored in the location they require.
