Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between hot, cool, and archive storage tiers in Azure?
Hot storage is optimized for frequently accessed data requiring rapid retrieval. Cool storage is for less frequently accessed data with slightly longer retrieval times, and archive storage is for infrequently accessed data with the longest retrieval times and lowest cost. This subscription is for the high-performance hot tier.
What does Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS protects your data against hardware failures within a single Azure data center. It asynchronously copies your data three times within a single physical location, providing basic redundancy. For higher availability, consider Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS).
Can this storage be used for any type of data?
Yes, this 10 PB hot storage capacity can be used for any data that requires frequent and fast access. This includes application data, active databases, user files, and frequently accessed archives, provided it meets US Government region requirements.
