Azure Cloud Storage Technology

Cost-effective disk storage

Run clustered or high-availability applications cost effectively in the cloud using shared disks.

Seamless scalability

Meet demand without performance disruption by using Ultra Disk Storage.

Maximize your investment and business impact

Optimize costs and get the precise amount of disk storage you need for your workloads. Disk options come in sizes from 4 GB to 64 TB at a variety of price points and performance characteristics. Reduce time and costs for backup and disaster recovery with incremental snapshots, which are point-in-time backups for disks that consist of only the changes between snapshots. Lift and shift your Windows and Linux-based clustered or high-availability applications to Azure with shared disks, keeping your architecture as-is and reducing storage costs.

 

Ensure business continuity and minimize disruptions

Run business-critical applications and avoid costly downtime with redundancy options, including zone-redundant storage which copies your data across multiple zones in a region and protects your disks in the event of a zone failure.

Azure offers single-instance service-level agreements (SLA) for all disk types, with a best-in-class single-instance SLA of 99.9 percent availability for Azure Virtual Machines using Premium SSD or Ultra Disk Storage. Minimize disruption to your business with support from Azure Backup and Azure Site Recovery.

 

Scale easily and quickly with the performance you need

Get the performance and capacity you need and scale from gigabytes to petabytes of storage. Scale performance on-demand with performance tiers and built-in bursting capabilities to meet business needs. Achieve high performance even at low storage capacities—Azure Ultra Disk Storage and Premium SSD v2 have the flexibility to configure your IOPS (input/output operations per second), throughput, and capacity independently. Create and manage disks easily by selecting the disk type and size.

 

Help protect your most valuable data

Safeguard sensitive data with the encryption option that meets your security and compliance requirements, including encryption-at-rest, encryption-in-transit, and double-encryption for enhanced security. Restrict access to your data by using Azure Private Link to allow import and export only from your private Azure virtual network. Manage and control access to your data by assigning specific permissions with Azure role-based access control.
