Frequently Asked Questions
What is Microsoft Azure Reserved Capacity?
Azure Reserved Capacity allows you to pre-purchase a specific amount of compute or storage resources for a one-year or three-year term. This guarantees capacity and can offer significant cost savings compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.
What is the difference between cool and hot storage tiers in Azure?
Cool storage is optimized for infrequently accessed data and offers lower storage costs but higher access costs. Hot storage is for frequently accessed data, with higher storage costs but lower access costs. This offering is for cool storage.
What does Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS means your data is copied synchronously three times within a single data center. This protects your data against local hardware failures but not against entire data center outages.
