Hello @v-zhengdxu-msft ,
Firstly, many thanks for your response! I actually already went throught those links you sent. However, as per this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/admin/service-admin-premium-multi-geo
"Multi-Geo is a Fabric feature that helps multinational customers address regional, industry-specific, or organizational data residency requirements. As a Fabric customer, you can deploy content to data centers in regions other than the home region of the Fabric tenant."
"If you need to change the region for existing content, you have two options:
- Create a second capacity and move workspaces."
So here it looks like the data should indeed be located in the capacity region and not the home region, assuming you place your PBI workspaces on the capacity, would you agree? Why else would a client, who has specific data residency requirements (like us) create a new capacity in the desired region, if the data remained in the original region? This makes no sense to me.
Is it that maybe the data in PBI semantic models, once it gets refreshed, would be stored in the capacity region? i.e. there's no migration of the old data but new data would be stored in the capacity's region? Or maybe if you create a brand new PBI workspace and assign it to the capacity in the new region, would its data be kept there?
I wish there was a way to verify this for sure, but I can't see any page/ app/ log where I would see my PBI semantic models or other data with clear indication of where it is stored.
The Help -> About information (as per your first link) would display the home region but I'm not sure if this information is accurate if you move workspaces to one or multiple capacities in other regions.
This is a crucial requirement to move our data to the capacity's region for us so any insights would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately we can't migrate the tenant because we are on F8 only where the migration is not supported.
Thank you,
Pepi
