Google Cloud already works with many Belgian organizations. Customers include Proximus, Delhaize, and the Flemish Government. The new region gives these partners more options. They can build solutions faster and more reliably. It strengthens their ability to serve people locally.
Google states this expansion meets growing customer demand. More European organizations want secure, low-latency cloud services. The Belgium region adds to Google’s global network. This network now includes 40 regions worldwide. Each region helps deliver cloud resources faster and safer.
The Belgium region is built with multiple cloud zones. These zones are separate data centers within the region. This design protects against unexpected outages. If one zone has a problem, services keep running in others. Security and reliability are core features.
