Free edition of Microsoft Teams and geographic data location
When setting up Teams free, you will see this message which states that Microsoft may host the data anywhere they wish;
Not sure how you would find out, although you do also choose your regional location at this step so it's a safe bet that it would reside in the closest data centre to the location you provide.
Thanks PeterRising .
I wondered if that may be the case. It's great that Microsoft are offering this (I like Teams!), frankly its amazing for them to do this in the current climate. I'd just prefer to know exactly where the data is held.
Also I'd prefer if on the MS pages where they do comparisons between Teams paid and Teams free, they actually put some reference to it on there. Heck it would even be a selling point to mention this to some areas of the world. But ah well.
Have a nice evening, all the best.
