10:55 - “How and why Bitrix24 chose Multi-Cloud before it became mainstream”
Alexander Demidov, Director of Bitrix24 Cloud Services

For global projects focused on working with clients around the world, presence in key markets is extremely important . Firstly, it is necessary to reduce network delays and be closer to consumers: for customers in Europe use European data centers, for the USA - American, etc. Secondly, presence in local markets is necessary in terms of compliance with local laws . For example, 152-ФЗ “About personal data” in Russia, GDPR in Europe, CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) in the USA.

Moreover, even the world's largest IaaS providers cannot build the necessary infrastructure around the world, at least in the short term.

Using the example of Bitrix24, we will describe how we migrated data to Russia from AWS to comply with local laws, as well as how we provide redundancy and fault tolerance, working with several cloud providers even in one region.
