Hugging Face Launches Storage Regions Feature
Key point
Hugging Face has introduced a Storage Regions feature in the Enterprise Hub for regulatory compliance and improved performance.
Details
Hugging Face has launched the Storage Regions feature as part of its Enterprise Hub plan. This feature allows organizations to directly choose the physical location where their models and datasets are stored.
The main benefits are as follows:
- Regulatory and Legal Compliance: Organizations can achieve Digital Sovereignty, and in particular, EU users can restrict data centers to within the EU to build ML models while complying with GDPR.
- Improved Performance: Storing data close to the infrastructure improves upload and download speeds and latency. European users using the EU region can expect about 4-5x faster speeds compared to the US region.
Currently supported regions are the US and EU, with an Asia-Pacific region set to be added soon. The stored region information is displayed as a tag on the Repository, making it easy for organization members to check the location.
