Where does Bitbucket cloud host its data?

[Liviu Blidar]

I've just come across a post saying that Bitbucket cloud is delaying data residency options to 2026. If this is not something already based on the customer's location, what is the current data residency? Is it all in the US?

Would this include user data (emails, ssh keys, etc) and code repositories?

Thank you in advance.

Welcome @Liviu Blidar 

This is what I have found:

• Bitbucket Cloud data is hosted in the USA, with no data residency control for customers. This can be problematic depending on where your organization and customers are based, and the industry you’re in.
• Bitbucket Cloud also doesn’t meet security standards that are required for heavily regulated industries, like FedRAMP.
• Securing your code and development process with SAML single-sign-on (SSO) is a premium feature on Bitbucket Cloud, requiring Atlassian Access at an extra cost.
• Atlassian’s tools are standalone, rather than a single integrated platform. This can mean a disjointed experience for developers, with more time context-switching and less time creating and shipping code.
