Frequently Asked Questions
What is reserved capacity for Azure storage?
Reserved capacity allows you to commit to a specific amount of storage (like 1 PB of hot storage) for a 1-year term at a discounted rate compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. This guarantees your capacity and helps manage costs.
What does 'LRS' mean for storage?
LRS stands for Locally Redundant Storage. It means your data is copied three times within a single data center. This protects your data from hardware failures within that data center but not from regional disasters.
Is this suitable for non-US Government entities?
This specific offering is tailored for US Government entities in Texas due to its compliance and data residency focus. While Azure offers similar storage solutions for other customers, this SKU is optimized for that specific market.
