Data residency
Data residency is a requirement or practice governing the geographic locations or jurisdictions in which data may be stored or processed.
Architecting an Apache Iceberg Lakehouse
Data residency is the requirement that data be stored or processed within specified geographic or jurisdictional boundaries.
- How it is used
- Constrains lakehouse storage, catalog, and query architecture when organizations must satisfy geographic, privacy, or regulatory boundaries.
- How deep it goes
- Explains placement, replication, encryption, auditing, and query enforcement, but stops short of specifying one universal deployment pattern.
- Examples
- Uses regional healthcare datasets, jurisdiction-aware Iceberg tables, and hybrid bank storage spanning cloud and on-premises object stores.
- What you can do after
- Operate/configure storage, catalogs, and query paths so regulated data remains localized and compliance evidence remains auditable.

MongoDB 8.0 in Action, Third Edition
A data residency policy specifies the geographic locations in which data may be stored or processed.
- How it is used
- Guides Atlas deployment choices when applications require regional data locality, regulatory compliance, low latency, or high availability.
- How deep it goes
- Explains geopartitioning, zones, region roles, and customer configuration, but does not provide command-level setup instructions.
- Examples
- Uses Atlas Global Clusters, regional shards, and Highest Priority, Electable, and Read-only region assignments as implementation examples.
- What you can do after
- Configure Atlas Global Clusters to keep data in designated regions while supporting regional reads, writes, and failover.
