Insights
The launch of Zuora's APAC data center represents a strategic infrastructure expansion that addresses key technical and regulatory requirements in the region. The 30x performance improvement through reduced network latency and local data hosting capabilities significantly enhances the platform's operational efficiency for regional customers.
The data center's compliance with Japan's APPI regulations and support for data locality requirements removes critical barriers to entry in the Japanese market, which represents Zuora's third-largest market by ARR. This infrastructure investment positions Zuora to capture a larger share of Japan's substantial subscription economy market while better serving existing enterprise clients like BIGLOBE.
The technical architecture improvements, including enhanced protection against international network outages and optimized maintenance windows for APAC time zones, demonstrate a robust technical foundation for regional expansion.
Newly established data center will enhance compliance and support experience for customers in the APAC region
Zuora has a strong presence in APAC, with more than 100 customers in the region, including BIGLOBE, one of Japan’s leading internet service providers.
The APAC data center provides:
-
In-region data storage to help meet data protection and privacy requirements: New data protection and privacy regulations in the APAC region, such as
Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI), require software data to be hosted domestically, which is now available as an option for Zuora customers. - Up to 30x faster performance: Reduced network hopping to connect with customer ecosystems can improve speeds by up to 30x, while high-capacity network infrastructure helps prioritize local web traffic and lower latency.
- Convenient maintenance and support windows: Zuora maintenance and support windows are now available outside of key business hours for APAC time zones.
- Improved reliability combined with Zuora’s focus on security: Enhanced protection against international network outages without compromising on Zuora’s robust security protections.
“Zuora’s new data center reinforces our commitment to our APAC customers while unlocking growth opportunities in this critical, innovative market,” said Pete Hirsch, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Zuora. “We are excited to help companies in the region monetize new revenue streams faster and more securely, with an even better customer experience.”
