Generally Available: Geo Priority Replication for Azure Blob
Geo priority replication enhances the replication process for GRS and GZRS storage accounts by enabling accelerated data replication between the primary and secondary regions. This feature is backed by a Service Level Agreement (SLA), ensuring the Last Sync Time for Block Blob data remains at 15 minutes or less, 99.0% of the billing month. With this guaranteed sync time, users can feel more confident about their data’s durability and availability, especially if an unexpected outage occurs in their primary region and a failover is required.
Geo Priority Replication applies to Block Blob.
