HOTSPOT
A company has locations in North America and Europe. The company uses Azure SQL Database to support business apps.
Employees must be able to access the app data in case of a region-wide outage.
A multi-region availability solution is needed with the following requirements:
– Read-access to data in a secondary region must be available only in case of an outage of the primary region.
– The Azure SQL Database compute and storage layers must be integrated and replicated together.
You need to design the multi-region high availability solution.

Box 1: Standard
The following table describes the types of storage accounts and their capabilities:
Box 2: Geo-redundant storage
If your storage account has GRS enabled, then your data is durable even in the case of a complete regional outage or a disaster in which the primary region isn’t recoverable.
Note: If you opt for GRS, you have two related options to choose from:
GRS replicates your data to another data center in a secondary region, but that data is available to be read only if Microsoft initiates a failover from the primary to secondary region. Read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) is based on GRS. RA-GRS replicates your data to another data center in a secondary region, and also provides you with the option to read from the secondary region. With RA-GRS, you can read from the secondary region regardless of whether Microsoft initiates a failover from the primary to secondary region.
