Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Archive Storage?
Azure Archive Storage is a cloud storage tier designed for data that is accessed very infrequently, typically once or twice a year. It offers the lowest storage costs but has higher data retrieval times and costs compared to hot or cool tiers.
What does 'Reserved Capacity' mean?
Reserved Capacity means you are committing to a specific amount of storage (100 TB in this case) for a set term (3 years) at a pre-negotiated price. This provides cost savings and guarantees capacity availability.
What is Local Redundant Storage (LRS)?
LRS protects your data by replicating it synchronously multiple times within a single data center. This protects against hardware failures but not against entire data center or regional disasters.
