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 (e.g., one year) in exchange for a lower price compared to pay-as-you-go rates. This helps in cost optimization and predictable budgeting.
What is the difference between Hot, Cool, and Archive tiers?
Hot tier is for frequently accessed data requiring low latency. Cool tier is for less frequently accessed data with slightly higher latency. Archive tier is for rarely accessed data with the lowest cost but highest latency.
What does Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) mean?
LRS means your data is automatically replicated three times within a single Azure datacenter. This protects your data from hardware failures and corruption within that facility.
