Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between cool and hot storage in Azure?
Cool storage is optimized for infrequently accessed data that is stored for at least 30 days, offering lower storage costs than hot storage. Hot storage is for frequently accessed data and has higher storage costs but lower access costs.
What does Local Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS protects your data against local hardware failures within a single data center. It asynchronously copies your data three times within a single physical location, providing high durability against common hardware failures.
Can this reserved capacity be used for any type of data?
This subscription is for Azure Cool storage, making it ideal for infrequently accessed data such as backups, disaster recovery archives, or historical data. It is not recommended for frequently accessed transactional data.
