All workloads were transitioned seamlessly with no disruption, and the zone is now fully operational in its new location.</p><p class="">This upgrade strengthens the resilience of the Frankfurt region and increases capacity to support continued customer growth and evolving workload requirements. </p><p class=""><b style="text-align: center;"></b></p><div class="medium-insert-images"><figure class="resized" style="max-width: 203.277px; max-height: 249.047px;">
