FAQ
-
Yes. Availability Zone is different to Zone.
Zone is a geographical grouping of Azure regions for billing purpose. Data transfer pricing is based on the Zones. For Zone details, please refer to FAQ below.
Availability Zone is an isolated location inside an Azure region, and has its own independent power source, network and cooling. The physical and logical separation of Availability Zones within an Azure region protects apps and data from zone-level failures. Availability Zone data transfer pricing is based on Availability Zones.
