Google Cloud has launched generally available cross-region backups for its Backup and DR Service, enabling customers to store backups in separate regions from primary workloads. The feature improves regional resilience, supports data residency compliance and helps optimize costs through flexible recovery region selection. It currently supports Compute Engine, Disks and Filestore, with Cloud SQL and AlloyDB support planned later.
