Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Files Reserved Capacity?
Azure Files Reserved Capacity allows you to commit to a specific amount of storage capacity for a one-year or three-year term at a discounted rate compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. This ensures you have the capacity you need when you need it.
What is the difference between Hot and Cool tier storage?
Hot tier storage is optimized for frequently accessed data, offering lower latency and higher throughput. Cool tier storage is designed for less frequently accessed data, providing a lower storage cost but with higher access latency and lower throughput.
What does GZRS mean for my data?
GZRS (Geo-Redundant Storage) means your data is replicated synchronously to a secondary region within the same geography, and then asynchronously to a third region in a different geography. This provides the highest level of durability and availability.
