Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Files Reserved Capacity?
Azure Files Reserved Capacity allows you to pre-purchase a specific amount of Azure Files storage capacity at a discounted rate for a one-year term. This provides cost savings and predictable pricing for your storage needs.
What is the difference between Hot and Cool tier storage?
Hot tier storage is optimized for frequently accessed data, offering lower latency and higher performance. Cool tier storage is for less frequently accessed data, providing a lower storage cost but with higher access latency.
What does Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS means your data is copied synchronously three times within a single data center. This protects your data against hardware failures within that data center but not against regional disasters.
