Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Hot, Cool, and Archive storage tiers in Azure?
Hot tier is for frequently accessed data requiring low latency. Cool tier is for infrequently accessed data that needs to be readily available. Archive tier is for rarely accessed data stored at the lowest cost, with longer retrieval times.
What does RA-GRS mean for my data protection?
RA-GRS means your data is replicated to a secondary geographic region, providing protection against regional disasters. You can also read data from both the primary and secondary regions, enhancing availability.
Can I change the amount of storage or the term after purchase?
This is a reserved capacity commitment for a fixed term and amount. Changes to the capacity or term would typically require purchasing a new reservation or modifying your existing Azure subscription configuration, subject to Azure's terms.
