Dataweavers and Sitecore Expand Sovereign Cloud Hosting to New Regulated Markets
Dataweavers and Sitecore are expanding sovereign cloud hosting for SitecoreAI into China, the Middle East, and Canada. The expansion aims to meet local data residency requirements for enterprises using SitecoreAI.
Dataweavers, the enterprise platform operations company behind Arc, and Sitecore, a global leader in digital experience platforms, have expanded Arc's sovereign cloud hosting model for SitecoreAI into new regulated markets. These include China, the Middle East, and Canada, offering global enterprises an in-country hosting option.
The expansion allows businesses to deliver SitecoreAI-powered experiences in these new markets while addressing local data residency mandates, without rebuilding their platform investment. Arc by Dataweavers operates within the customer's own Azure tenant on region-specific infrastructure, providing self-service Next.js hosting and built-in governance and security under a single SLA.
"Enterprise organizations are navigating an increasingly complex map of data residency and compliance requirements," said Darren Paterson, President, Asia Pacific and Japan, Sitecore. "Dataweavers has built a hosting model that helps our customers extend SitecoreAI-powered experiences into new regulated markets while addressing local data residency requirements."
Owen Brandt, Chief Revenue Officer at Dataweavers, highlighted the trend that infrastructure "has to stay closer to home, wherever home is." This initiative builds on the existing strategic alliance between Dataweavers and Sitecore, aiming to support enterprises evaluating SitecoreAI deployments in regulated markets.
