Fastmail Expands Sovereign EU Storage Infra with Low-Latency Mail Nodes

Fastmail has completed the expansion of its sovereign EU cloud infrastructure, enabling users to isolate all email, calendar, and contact records within European jurisdiction. The hardware deployment ensures compliance with strict European privacy mandates, decoupling user data from US CLOUD Act subpoena scope. The new datacenters feature hardware-level encryption at rest, high-speed NVMe storage arrays, and automated migration tooling for existing customers switching regions.

As corporate demand for data sovereignty grows, Fastmail's initiative sets a high standard for privacy-centric communication providers.
