For Compliance and Latency in Banking, Move the Data Closer to the Customer

Financial services organizations are increasingly looking to the cloud for infrastructure that supports real-time processing of transactions and ensures compliance with local data protection and privacy laws. Low latency is crucial in financial services, especially for high-frequency trading applications. Multi-region deployments and geo-partitioning can help keep data closer to users, improving performance and ensuring regulatory compliance. CockroachDB from Cockroach Labs offers geo-partitioning capabilities that enable developers at banks and financial services organizations to designate where data should be stored at the database, table, and row-level, helping deliver applications with low latency while staying compliant with data protection and privacy regulations.
