Azure NetApp Files Elastic zone-redundant storage is a high-availability storage service level for Azure NetApp Files that synchronously replicates your data across multiple Azure Availability Zones in a single region. This means if one zone experiences an outage, your data and applications remain available from the other zones with zero data loss. Azure NetApp Files Elastic zone-redundant storage delivers similar enterprise-grade features as other Azure NetApp Files service levels (support for NFSv3, NFSv4.1, SMB, snapshots, clones, encryption, backup) but with built-in multi-availability zone redundancy. It eliminates single points of failure, ensuring continuous data access even during an entire zone outage.
