## Choosing a region

- **Proximity**: pick a region near your app or users to keep network latency low.
- **Data residency**: meet regulatory or compliance needs (for example EU storage for GDPR).
- **Existing infrastructure**: matching your current AWS or Azure footprint cuts transfer cost and latency.
- **Features**: some options (for example VPC peering, AWS Transit Gateway) depend on the provider. See the [feature comparison](/docs/get-started/feature-comparison/index.md).

## Cross-region backups

On AWS, you can store backup copies in a different region than your primary service for extra resilience to regional outages.
