Backblaze, Inc. announced on January 7, 2025, the official opening of its new data region in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This facility represents the company's fourth global region and is now open for business, fulfilling its previously announced plans.
The new Canadian data center allows Backblaze to offer cloud storage solutions that meet strict local regulations, enabling businesses to store and process data within Canadian borders. This addresses a critical need for data sovereignty compliance in industries such as healthcare, finance, and government.
This operational expansion, in partnership with Opti9, strengthens Backblaze's commitment to providing an open, interoperable, and cost-effective cloud solution to a broader international customer base. The facility maintains SOC 1 Type 2, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and HIPAA security certifications.
