In this video, let’s learn about data sovereignty, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the EU and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the U.S, and how Equinix, with its extensive network of data centers across over 70 major metros, helps companies meet these regulatory requirements effortlessly.
