This post announces the general availability of 'Regional Services' in India, Japan, and Australia, expanding Cloudflare's ability to meet data localization requirements globally. It details how Regional Services work by leveraging Anycast and BGP to ensure traffic is routed to data centers within a customer-defined region for decryption and inspection, while raw traffic can be forwarded encrypted to the correct region if initially routed elsewhere. This directly addresses customer needs for regulatory compliance and contractual agreements regarding data handling.
