Do you have data residency requirements and would like to have your core data moved to the India datacenter region? Now, you have an option to request a move before October 31, 2016.
Microsoft recommends that you take no action, unless your organization needs core customer data to be stored at rest in the India data center region. By choosing to move your data, customers limit Microsoft´s possibilities to optimize the location of their core customer data at rest in either their current or the India data center region.
How does this affect you?
If your organization has a requirement to store core customer data at rest within India, you will have to request a move via the Office 365 admin center. The deadline for requesting your move is October 31, 2016. Data moves will complete within 24 months after the enrolment period.
What do you need to do to prepare for this change?
You can review the location of your core customer data at rest and request to move your data in the Organization Profile section of the Office 365 admin center.
