Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Storage Reserved Capacity?
Azure Storage Reserved Capacity allows you to commit to a specific amount of storage for a one-year or three-year term at a significantly discounted rate compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. It's ideal for steady-state storage workloads.
What is the difference between Cool and Hot tiers?
The Cool tier is optimized for storing data that is accessed less frequently but requires rapid access when needed, offering a lower storage cost. The Hot tier is for frequently accessed data and has higher storage costs but lower access costs.
What does Local Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS protects your data against local hardware failures within a single data center. It asynchronously copies your data three times within a storage scale unit, providing high availability for your data.
