Ask HN: Do I have to host all data in the EU to comply with GDPR?

Hi HN,

I've had some EU-based potential customers ask whether I could host their data separately on EU located servers.

I've been Googling around to get a definitive answer as to whether this is an absolute requirement or whether there is an easier way around it.

For reference, my current setup includes servers in US, a database on Google Cloud and a cloud-based ElasticSearch instance.

Any insight or experience with this would be greatly appreciated!
