Upbit, South Korea’s largest crypto exchange, will move user data to US-based AWS servers starting Oct. 1 to boost reliability, but it raises privacy concerns under the CLOUD Act.

With Real User Monitoring, AWS customers can understand when there is a problem with a deployment and take corrective action before customers really begin to feel it.

For that reason, it's great to see organizations like Amazon AWS jumping in to offer new training courses and tools to help people get up to speed.

Upbit’s decision to store user data on AWS introduces privacy and jurisdiction considerations, such as the fact that user data will be subject to US laws and regulations.
