Where did you get "UM" at all? I checked their Trust site and haven't found any instance with that abbreviation.

@PranayJaiswal what is 'GS' -- also does that mean it will change to an 'EU' instance after the pre-release? Is there any documentation to support this? Email: ATTENTION: Your new instance name will be UM4 following the instance refresh on January 19 status.salesforce.com/maintenances/28535

It refer to London, UK (North) / London, UK (West).
As per docs: We will soon have two geographically dispersed data
centers in the London, UK metropolitan area - London, UK (North) and
London, UK (West).

@TheAdmin Not sure but maybe UK metropolitan(UM). This is not on trust site because they are still new and Salesforce didn't move any customer site on them so no need. Not quite sure.

All UK customers I met has EU instance, I dont know if it was a specific requirement after BREXIT to move data from Europe data centers to UK data Centers.

According to GDPR stuff I heard, EU data should be inside EU no matter what, after brexit that wont be the case so I dont know if UM should even be considered for your org migration. The best bet is to raise a case or mail your account manager
