Frequently Asked Questions
What is Microsoft Storage Reserved Capacity?
It is a program that allows you to reserve a specific amount of Azure storage capacity for a 1- or 3-year term at a discounted rate compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. This ensures you have the capacity you need at a predictable cost.
What is the difference between Hot, Cool, and Archive tiers?
The Hot tier is optimized for frequently accessed data, offering the lowest latency and highest throughput. Cool tier is for less frequently accessed data, and Archive tier is for data accessed infrequently, offering the lowest storage cost but higher retrieval times and costs.
What does Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS protects your data by replicating it synchronously three times within a single data center. This protects against hardware failures but not against entire data center outages.
