The geographic disparity of Azure Regions is important. Global distribution of Azure Regions is strategic according to geography. There are many factors involved in their placement; from geo-political to internet latency for large population centers. However, Azure Region pairs have another big consider...
Following safe deployment practices, Azure SQL Database generally doesn't update paired regions at the same time. However, it isn't possible to predict which region will be upgraded first, so the order of deployment isn't guaranteed. Sometimes, your primary server is upgraded first, and sometim...
The usability of the Azure storage replication is limited to Azure Blob Storage (for backup purposes), file shares and volumes, and other high-latency storage scenarios.As you check for paired regions and the services that you want to use in your primary or secondary regions, it's possible ...
For the listing of Azure region pairs, refer to Business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR): Azure Paired Regions. You can further enhance the degree of this resiliency by designing and implementing solutions that extend the scope of workload protection. This is the added value provided by...
Planned Azure updates roll out to paired regions one at a time to minimize downtime and risk of application outage. Data continues to reside within the same geography as its pair (except for Brazil South) for tax and legal purposes. Availability zones - Use multiple availability zones to ...
All processes from detection to response and action are performed as if it were a real service-impacting event. Service responders are the normal on-call engineers. Additionally, we also test synthetic customer responsible functions, such as virtual machine (VM) failover to paired regions, ensuring...
In the past 18 months, the Azure Functions platform has reduced cold start latency by approximately 53% across all regions and for all supported languages and platforms. Working through challenges This project pushed the boundaries for both the GitHub and Azure Functions engineering teams. Together,...
Business operations are restored into the Azure paired region. 3. Reconstitution Phase: In this phase the original Azure region hosted system/ service is restored, and execution phase procedures are stopped. Microsoft provides tools and services to help you implement and test your disaster recovery ...
In some cases, the paired regions across which the data is geo-replicated may be in another country or region. For more information on paired regions, see Azure regions. If your scenario is using Azure unmanaged disks, you may opt for LRS. While it's possible to create a storage account...
