为了掌控全球数据生态系统，微软于12月10日承诺向加拿大和印度投资超过300亿美元，在两大洲同步启动大规模基础设施建设。 在加拿大渥太华，微软宣布将在2027年前投入190亿加元（约134亿美元）用于扩建加拿大本地云。其中一项关键承诺是：若遇外国司法 机构试图调取存储于加拿大的数据，微软将采取法律诉讼等手段进行对抗。 与此同时，微软大幅升级了其印度战略，承诺投资额增至175亿美元。与2025年1月设定的目标相比，这一数额激增近六倍。按计划，微 软的Azure AI服务将深度集成至印度政府福利门户网站，覆盖约3.1亿劳工。 2025年6月份，微软公布了其在欧洲云主权计划的细节，确认客户存储的数据将保留在欧洲境内，并遵守欧洲法规。这项名为"微软主权 云"的新计划，将为欧洲各地的企业提供三种不同的选择：主权公有云、主权私有云以及国家合作伙伴云。 从战略层面看，这些行动意味着微软的重心正从集中在美国的"超级工厂"转向分布式、国家级的基础设施布局。这种"主权AI"模式直接 回应了各国政府日益强烈的诉求：数据必须存储在境内，核心AI系统须由本地掌控。 通过将计算能力本地化，微软实质上是在为应对日益严格的数据本地化法律修筑 ...
