Questions

## Azure: frequently asked

Can we keep data in Ireland on Azure?

Yes, the North Europe region is in Ireland. As with any cloud, check which services are available there and how global services handle data.

Azure OpenAI or OpenAI directly?

Azure OpenAI fits organisations that want Azure networking, identity, regions and billing. OpenAI's own API often gets new features first. We compare both against your requirements.
