Exa has opened a European Union region for its web search service, replicating its main web index in AWS Stockholm (eu-north-1). Customers can now run Exa search inside the EU with, the company says, no difference in quality from the US service.
The change matters most to companies with European customers, which often cannot send queries to a US service because of regulations or internal requirements. Exa says every system that touches customer data now runs regionally: requests are stored and processed in Stockholm.
Exa lists three commitments for the EU region. Data stays in the EU. There is no silent fallback, so EU requests are never sent to the US. And search performs on par with the US region.
EU access requires a new EU team, which customers set up by contacting Exa's sales team. Exa has published a blog post on the launch.
