Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Storage Reserved Capacity?
Azure Storage Reserved Capacity allows you to commit to a specific amount of storage capacity for a one-year or three-year term at a significantly reduced price compared to pay-as-you-go rates. It's ideal for predictable, long-term storage needs.
What is RA-GRS and why is it important?
RA-GRS stands for Read-Access Geo-Redundant Storage. It provides high durability by replicating your data synchronously three times within a primary region and asynchronously to a secondary region hundreds of miles away. This protects against regional disasters and allows read access from the secondary region.
Can I change the amount of storage after purchase?
Reserved capacity is a commitment for the specified duration. While you cannot decrease the reserved amount during the term, you can purchase additional reservations if your needs grow. It is designed for predictable, consistent storage requirements.
