Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Files Reserved Capacity?
Azure Files Reserved Capacity allows you to pre-purchase a specific amount of storage capacity for a one-year or three-year term at a discounted rate compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. This ensures you have dedicated capacity available when you need it.
What is the difference between Hot, Cool, and Archive tiers?
The Hot tier is for frequently accessed data, offering the lowest latency. The Cool tier is for less frequently accessed data, balancing cost and access time. The Archive tier is for rarely accessed data, offering the lowest storage cost but with longer retrieval times.
What is Zone Redundant Storage (ZRS)?
ZRS protects your data against localized failures by replicating it synchronously across three Azure availability zones in the primary region. This provides higher availability than locally redundant storage (LRS).
