Unity catalog Metastors

Hi,

I have a couple of questions

1) For Unity Catalog can we sync 2 Metastores which are in different regions?
2) If latency is not an issue, can a single metastore handle 2 different regions (and their workspaces)

1. There is no way to sync 2 metastores specifically but you can use Delta Sharing to create a read only view of a source metastore on a target metastore.

2. Metastores are associated to the region, only workspaces in the same region can be assigned

Thanks Walter for the reply. Would you be able to point to some reference blueprints for workspace and metastore designs for a medallion architecture?
