Manage regulated data with InCountry
With minimum configuration, you can define what to localize within China with InCountry, without requiring application changes that affect the existing functionality and workflows. Your application continues operation with two data stores. The native application data store retains non-regulated data while the local data store keeps the highly regulated data in compliance with Chinese data protection regulation.
