We are in the early stages of a multi-year and multi-phase project to roll out IFS Cloud, MWM, MWO, and PSO, along with other systems. One of those is a new ESRI (GIS) instance. For reasons of capacity management, Microsoft has asked us to build the ESRI instance in the US Central region of Azure. Our IFS deployments are in US Eastern. For planning purposes, we would like to understand the implications of having our applications in multiple regions, and, conversely, the implications of moving our IFS deployments to a new region to keep them close together.
