Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Hot, Cool, and Archive storage tiers in Azure?
Hot tier is optimized for frequently accessed data, offering the lowest access latency. Cool tier is for data accessed less frequently but requires rapid access when needed. Archive tier is for data rarely accessed, offering the lowest storage costs but with longer retrieval times.
What does Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS protects your data against local hardware failures within a single data center. It replicates your data synchronously three times within a single physical location, providing high durability against common hardware failures.
Can this subscription be used by non-US Government entities?
This specific offering is designed and priced for US Government entities to meet their unique compliance and security needs. Other entities should explore standard Azure storage offerings.
