  • Patent number: 10997211
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to enable control and placement of data repositories. In some embodiments, the system segments data into zones. A website, for example, may need to segment data according to location. In this example, a zone may be created for North America and another zone may be created for Europe. Data related to operations executed in North America, for example, can be placed in the North America zone and data related to transactions in Europe can be placed in the Europe zone. According to some embodiments, the system may use zones to accommodate a range of deployment scenarios.
