See [Enterprise accounts](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/admin/concepts/enterprise-fundamentals/enterprise-accounts).\n\nWhen you purchase GitHub Enterprise, you get access to both GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Enterprise Server. For more information about GitHub Enterprise Server and how it differs from GitHub Enterprise Cloud, see [About GitHub for enterprises](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/admin/overview/about-github-for-enterprises#about-deployment-options).\n\n## About enterprise types\n\nWhile setting up your trial of GitHub Enterprise Cloud, you'll choose an enterprise type.\n\n* Enterprise with personal accounts\n* Enterprise with managed users\n\nTo help you decide which choice is best for your enterprise, see [Choosing an enterprise type for GitHub Enterprise Cloud](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/admin/identity-and-access-management/understanding-iam-for-enterprises/choosing-an-enterprise-type-for-github-enterprise-cloud).\n\n## About data residency\n\nIf you choose an enterprise with managed users, you can also choose where your company's data is stored.\n\nBy default, GitHub stores data for GitHub.com in the USA. When you adopt GitHub Enterprise Cloud with data residency, you can choose where your company's code and data are stored. Your enterprise will be hosted on a dedicated subdomain of GHE.com.\n\nData residency makes it easy to separate open source and enterprise work, and helps you meet specific data residency compliance requirements.\n\nThe available regions are:\n\n* EU (includes Azure regions in EFTA countries, currently Norway and Switzerland)\n* Australia\n* US\n* Japan\n\nIn the future, GitHub plans to offer data residency in more regions.\n\n## About documentation\n\nDocumentation for both administrators and users of GitHub Enterprise Cloud is available on this site, GitHub Docs.\n\n* [Enterprise administrator documentation](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/admin)\n* [User documentation](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest)\n\nYou can read documentation that reflects the features available with GitHub Enterprise Cloud. For more information, see [About versions of GitHub Docs](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/get-started/using-github-docs/about-versions-of-github-docs).\n\n## Can I try GitHub Enterprise Cloud?\n\nYou can sign up for a free, 30-day trial of GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
