Power BI Data Centers

[Phil_Seamark]

Is there a list showing which Microsoft Data Centers can host Power BI apps.

I'm based in New Zealand and I know Microsoft have multiple data centers in Australia, however according to the service, we are running out of Singapore.  

We use on-premise data so every milli second saved will help.  

If/when Power BI is running out of an Australian Data Center, how easy will it be to move?

@Phil_Seamark @irinag I had same issue few weeks ago due to nature of data and was told by someone at Microsoft that any new powerbi signups you do will definately be hosted in Australia.

Hi Phil, I'm looking for the same thing, did you ever get a response to this ?

I heard a rumour about April, but can't seem to get anything confirmed.

Australian datacenter has already been released, but once tenant was created in Singapure power bi account will remain there:(. At this particular moment there is no way to migrate the data. The only way existing today is very ugly: if you don't mind loosing your content of the tenant (reports, dashboards and other settings), you can file a support ticket and tenant will be transitioned to Australia.

Hi team, is this still the case or can we now move the tennant to Aus without losing our data?

Power BI offers a muti-geo feature which helps in setting up the Power BI service in a new data center. It also provides ways to migrate some of the data. The below documentation contains details on what contents can be migrated to the new datacenter. please refer to the below documentation for details. Note: This functionality is currently available only for Premium users.
