Organisation in another continent than were the data is hosted

What could be the impact on the performance of the network when for example an european organisation was (by mistake) created in / is hosted in US?

- api calls that take several 100ms more per call ?

- config changes?

- (massive) firmware upgrades / template changes that take longer?

- slower failovers in redundant situations?

- slower snmp / webhook / syslog alarming / logging

- user interactivity at the dashboard

 

Anything i forget?

 

Has Cisco/Meraki any plans to make moving an organisation to another datacenter on the globe possible?

Maybe you should open a support case.

I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

The biggest issue is if you identify individuals (even by device names).  If you do, then you want to move the cloud host to the European region. for data protection purposes.

Support can only advise to create a new organisation in the correct area and then to move the devices.. There are 1k networks and 5k devices in this org.

 

Could this be accomplished with an api application?  Someone who build it already?

There will be no perceivable impact.
