Qlik Cross-Region Inference

[Sonja_Bauernfeind]

Modern large language models that power advanced AI capabilities, such as Qlik Answers, require processing infrastructure that may not be available in every Qlik region. To provide our AI capabilities in as many regions as possible, Qlik Cloud now offers cross-region inference as an opt-in feature. You determine if available inference locations meet your data residency and compliance requirements.

Latest Update
March 9th, 2026

To deliver the best possible AI capabilities to our customers in Brazil, we are upgrading to modern AI models that require data processing across AWS commercial regions globally.

Starting 9th of April, data processing for Pipelines, API Designer, and Data Governance will move from Brazil-only to all AWS commercial regions.

Key highlights

• Regional compliance: Inference locations are tailored based on the underlying availability of AWS infrastructure.
• Transparency: Qlik provides at least 30 days' notice before any processing location changes

For complete details about inference locations for your region and data protection measures, see the full documentation available in Enabling cross-region inference.

Please subscribe to this article to receive updates to any inference location.

@Sonja_Bauernfeind None of the Qlik help pages mention Qlik MCP, even though Cross-region data processing is required for this feature to be activated and used. Is that an oversight in documentation, or what is that about? 

[Matthias_Herkommer]

@StefanBackstrand . there is an initiative on the way to decouple MCP from the cross-region data processing requirement, i.e. make MCP available without having to accept CRIS 😊. I'm sure, the documentation will be updated again shortly.
