This post introduces expanded capabilities for Regional Services, enabling customers to configure data processing locations with greater flexibility. It details the concept of Software Defined Regionalization (SDR) as the future of data localization, allowing for granular control over which traffic is regionalized and where. New regional offerings are announced, including specific countries and 'Exclusive of' regions, as well as a 'Cloudflare Green Energy' region. The post also reiterates the technical underpinnings of Regional Services, including encryption in transit and at rest, and how Anycast networks are adapted to respect regional boundaries by forwarding traffic to appropriate data centers for inspection and processing.
