Frequently Asked Questions
What is Microsoft Storage Reserved Capacity?
Reserved Capacity allows you to pre-purchase a specific amount of storage capacity in a particular tier for a set term. This guarantees you have the capacity when you need it and often comes at a lower effective cost than pay-as-you-go.
What is the difference between Archive, Cool, and Hot tiers in Azure Storage?
Azure Storage offers different tiers optimized for access frequency and cost. Hot is for frequently accessed data, Cool for infrequently accessed data, and Archive for rarely accessed data with the lowest storage cost but higher retrieval times and costs.
What does LRS mean for data protection?
Local Redundant Storage (LRS) replicates your data synchronously three times within a single physical location in the primary region. It protects against hardware failures but not against region-wide disasters.
