Set up Supplemental Data Storage

 

As an administrator, you have the option to store a copy of your users’ data in a specific country. You do this by enabling Supplemental Data Storage in your Google Admin console. You can do this for some or all of your users. Google will then store those users’ data on servers based in the country you select, in addition to Google’s existing data centers. These Google Workspace core services are included in this feature: Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Groups for Business, Google Drive, and Google Contacts.
