Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Premium SSD and Standard SSD storage in Azure?
Premium SSD offers significantly higher IOPS and throughput with lower latency compared to Standard SSD, making it suitable for performance-sensitive workloads like production databases and virtual machines.
What does 'locally redundant storage' mean?
Locally redundant storage (LRS) copies your data synchronously three times within a single data center. This protects your data from transient hardware failures but not from data center-wide disasters.
Can I use this storage for general file storage?
While technically possible, Premium SSD Page Blobs are optimized for high-performance I/O operations like VM disks and databases. For general file storage, Azure Blob Storage tiers like Hot or Cool might be more cost-effective.
