    I think this is due to the data residency requirements in UAE. I'm working with a client in the health space and the government requirements requires me to store data only in UAE! Tried with AWS but they were not allowing any new instances and I had to go with Azure.

      Hi, I'm from the future. You might want to consider storing the data somewhere besides an Azure datacenter in the UAE.

              The 'at' in the middle tells me no. I also get Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law vibes but that could just be me.
