Vercel AI Gateway Adds Regional Inference: Pin Requests to US or EU Data Centers
Vercel shipped an `inferenceRegion` request parameter on AI Gateway that pins inference to US or EU data centers, with every provider supporting the selected region handling it identically. This closes a gap that had been an open community feature request since May 2026, where enterprises had to choose between Gateway features and GDPR data-residency compliance. Paired with Vercel's separate note that Kimi K3 is available on US-based providers with zero data retention, this makes the gateway pattern Nadella described this same week actually deployable under compliance constraints.
