Master Azure Availability Zones, region pairs, and availability sets. Learn how to design resilient cloud architectures and improve your uptime SLAs.

Azure runs more than 70 regions, and every one that supports zones hides at least three separate buildings inside it. Most of us assume that putting an app in the cloud keeps it running no matter what, and that's not how it works.

In this episode of Simply Explained you will learn:
  • Regions, the Big Picture
  • Inside a Region, Availability Zones
  • Why One Datacenter Isn't Enough
  • Availability Sets, the Older Tool
  • Zonal Versus Zone-Redundant Services
  • What the SLAs Actually Mean
  • Designing for Resilience
  • Region Pairs
  • The Costs and Trade-offs
  • Recap and One Question

Simply Explained by M365.FM breaks down Microsoft 365, Azure and modern IT topics in clear, jargon-free language. Hosted by Mirko Peters.
