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
