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 per-gigabyte cost compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. This ensures your capacity is available when you need it.
What is Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS)?
GRS replicates your data synchronously within a primary region and asynchronously to a secondary region hundreds of miles away. This provides the highest level of durability and availability, protecting against site failures.
