When you adopt GitHub Enterprise Cloud with data residency, you can choose where your company's code and data are stored. Your enterprise will be hosted on a dedicated subdomain of GHE.com.
Currently, you can store code and data in the EU. In the future, GitHub plans to offer data residency in more regions.
Although your code and user data are stored within your chosen region, GitHub may store certain types of data outside your region, and may need to transfer some data outside your region.
If you are in doubt about any aspect of data residency, contact your account manager in Equipe de vendas do GitHub.
