Frequently Asked Questions
What is Microsoft Storage Reserved Capacity?
It is a commitment to use a specific amount of Azure Storage capacity for a set term, typically offering a lower price than pay-as-you-go rates. This reservation guarantees you have the capacity when you need it.
What does RA-GRS mean for my data?
RA-GRS means your data is replicated to a secondary Azure region, providing high durability and availability. You can also read data from the secondary region, which is useful for disaster recovery scenarios.
Can I exceed the 100 TB reservation?
Yes, you can store more data than your reserved capacity, but you will be billed at the standard pay-as-you-go rates for any usage beyond the reserved 100 TB. The reservation ensures you always have at least 100 TB available at the reserved rate.
