At Miro, we believe AI should be accessible to all teams. But we also know that moving at the speed of AI only works when your teams have genuine confidence that their data is safe, their risk is managed, and they’re in control. That’s what AI trust means to us, and it’s foundational to how we’ve built our platform.
For teams operating in highly regulated environments, data residency isn’t a compliance footnote; it’s a core part of how you govern AI with confidence. Following our programs for Australia, the EU, and the United States, we’re excited to announce a new program built for Japan.
The challenge
For Japanese enterprises, data residency is rarely just a regulatory question. It’s a strategic architectural decision, one that reflects an organization’s governance values, internal security standards, and long-term risk posture.
Many of Japan’s most regulated industries, including healthcare, finance, and government, operate under industry self-regulation and internal policies that set a higher bar than the law alone requires. For these organizations, keeping data in Japan isn’t about addressing a gap — it’s about choosing the architecture that best fits how they work.
At Miro, we’re fully committed to supporting these needs.
Miro’s Japan data residency solution
Our new Japan data residency program is designed to store customer content within Japanese data centers. Here’s how it works:
In-region storage: We ensure that in-scope production data, backup data, and metadata are stored within Japanese data centers, giving security and compliance teams clear visibility and control over where their data lives.
In-region compute infrastructure: We use in-region compute infrastructure, eliminating the need for off-region data transfers between different IT elements. This reduces latency, giving you fast, reliable product performance.
