Frequently asked questions

What defines an Azure region?

Azure regions are sets of datacenters connected through a dedicated low-latency network. They are grouped into geographies for data residency and compliance.

How do paired and nonpaired regions work?

Some Azure services use region pairs for geo-replication or recovery sequencing. Other regions are nonpaired. A region pair does not automatically configure failover; high availability and disaster recovery depend on the services you use.

What are availability zones?

Availability zones are physically separated groups of datacenters within a region, with independent power, cooling, and networking. Support, configuration options, and availability SLAs vary by Azure service.
