1. Adapting to data rules
Equinix’s financial industry analysis urges firms to prioritize adaptable infrastructure over static data residency strategies as regulations and geopolitical conditions shift. At least 47 countries require some data storage or processing within their borders. Adaptable infrastructure can let firms relocate workloads, change data routes or deploy sovereign environments without complete redesigns; conflicting US and EU requirements may call for separate regional environments.
