When a customer signs up for On Demand, they select the region in which to run their On Demand organization. All computation is performed and all data is stored in the selected region. The currently supported regions can be found here: https://regions.quest-on-demand.com/.
Windows Azure Storage, including the Blobs, Tables, and Queues storage structures, are replicated three times in the same datacenter for resiliency against hardware failure. The data is replicated across different fault domains to increase availability. All replication datacenters reside within the geographic boundaries of the selected region.
