Verify Server Location Compliance

Confirm that servers and infrastructure are physically located in regions required by data residency regulations.

IP Geolocation

Data residency regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and industry-specific rules require that data stays within specific geographic boundaries. You deploy infrastructure in eu-west-1, but how do you verify the physical servers are actually in Europe? IP geolocation provides that verification.

The lookup skill resolves server IPs to physical locations, confirming that your database servers, API endpoints, and CDN nodes are where they should be. This is essential for compliance audits, vendor assessments, and infrastructure documentation.

Regulatory auditors want evidence, not assumptions. Showing that your production database IP resolves to Frankfurt and your backup resolves to Dublin is concrete proof of data residency compliance. This saves hours of manual verification and gives your compliance team the documentation they need.
