Sitecore Managed Cloud Premium Containers solutions support ARM-based deployments into Azure and a whole new set of Azure PaaS services. The following table summarizes all the Azure data centers and describes whether they have the default PaaS services required by Sitecore XM (XP) when running in Azure.
If a data center you want to deploy into does not have all of the PaaS services required by default Sitecore XM (XP) deployment, you can in most cases swap out service for an IaaS equivalent. More details on this are described in the following section.
