Limits and constraints that vary by cloud provider.

Universal limits across clouds
Region pairing recommendations
For minimal latency and cost, keep these in the same region:
- e6data workspace
- Underlying data (S3, ADLS Gen2)
- Metastore (Hive, Glue, Unity, Polaris)
Cross-region or cross-cloud access works but introduces:
- Egress costs (often significant for large data scans)
- Latency (10–200ms added per query)
- Reliability dependencies on cross-region networking
