Building a Global Cross - Regional Data Platform to Centralize Data for a Global Enterprise

Shreesha Hegde Kukkuhalli

Abstract: The modern enterprise is rapidly shifting towards global operations, demanding agile, scalable, and reliable data management systems to cope with the complexities of cross - regional data sharing. In this paper, we discuss the design, architecture, and implementation of a Global Cross - Regional Enterprise Data Platform that aims to centralize data across multiple geographies while addressing challenges related to data latency, compliance, governance, and security. We propose an approach that leverages cloud - native technologies, microservices, and data virtualization to enable centralized data access without compromising regional requirements. The paper provides a deep dive into key architectural principles, data integration and storage techniques, and best practices for data governance, while showcasing a case study of an enterprise which has successfully implemented such platform.
