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 at a reduced rate compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. This ensures you have the capacity you need when you need it.
What does 'GRS' mean in this context?
GRS stands for Geo-Redundant Storage. While this specific offering is for a reserved capacity in a single region (US DOD EAST), the underlying Azure storage services often have geo-redundancy options available separately.
Can I change the region after purchase?
Reserved capacity is region-specific. Changes to the region would typically require purchasing a new reservation for the desired region.
