Microsoft announced last year that they are going to launch two new Azure datacenter regions in Sweden in 2021.
The main region will be placed in Sandviken (Sweden Central), where the region will offer outside Azure, Microsoft 365 and Dynamic 365. The main Azure region also will feature availability zones and a guess is that it will be one of the larger regions in Europe.
A secondary Azure region will be featured in Staffanstorp in south of Sweden. This region will be a small region and will be serving for data residency primary as a secondary region to Sweden Central. Similiar to what Norway West region is to Norway East region. The Swedish south central will not feature Availability zones (at least to start out with).
One of the big things with the Swedish datacenters are their will be one sustainable datacenter. Gearing towards Microsoft goal of being carbon negative by 2030, hopefully Microsoft will reach that milestone.
Looking forward to Microsoft releasing the GA date of the Azure Sweden datacenters.
