Databases
Managed databases and app backends. Plenty can run in a Canadian region; almost none are Canadian-owned.
Canadian end to end: 1; Not US-owned, data in Canada: 1; US-owned, Canadian region: 3; Data leaves Canada: 1
What to ask any managed database
- Do logs, telemetry and backups stay in the same region as the data?
- Can the project be moved to another region later, or is the region fixed at creation?
