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 cost compared to pay-as-you-go. This ensures your data has a guaranteed place and performance.
What is the difference between Hot, Cool, and Archive storage tiers?
Hot tier is for frequently accessed data needing low latency. Cool tier is for less frequently accessed data with slightly higher latency. Archive tier is for rarely accessed data with the highest latency but lowest cost.
What does LRS mean for my data?
LRS means your data is replicated three times within a single data center. This protects against local hardware failures but not against a full data center outage.
