Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Premium Storage?
Azure Premium Storage is a type of storage that uses Solid State Drives (SSDs) to deliver high performance, low latency, and consistent IOPS for demanding workloads. It is designed for mission-critical applications and production workloads.
What is the difference between Premium SSD and Standard SSD?
Premium SSD offers higher IOPS and throughput compared to Standard SSD, with lower latency. It is suitable for I/O intensive workloads like boot volumes and transactional databases, while Standard SSD is better for general-purpose workloads.
What does 'Locally Redundant Storage' mean?
Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) replicates your data synchronously three times within a single data center. This protects your data against local hardware failures but does not protect against regional disasters.
