Editor's Notes
- Two types of durable storage: Premium Storage Standard Storage. Premium Storage uses Solid State Drives (SSDs) and provides high performance, low latency, disk storage with consistent performance delivery guarantees. Not for OS disk, though(?) Still have 3x replication within region, can also configure geo replication to a standard storage account

- Only available in the West US at the moment
- Support for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android based devices Uses site-to-site VPN Can join to your on-premises AD in order to authenticate users
- parallel queries, table partitioning, online indexing, worry-free large index rebuilds with the previous 2GB size limit removed, and more alter database commands CLR, T-SQL Windows functions, XML index, and change tracking support The new "S3" performance tier delivers 100 DTU of performance (twice the DTU level of the existing S2 tier) and all of the features available in the Standard tier.
- Can connect to on-prem resources in you VPN Choose the exact destination of your backups, including the specific Storage account and blob container you wish to store your backups within. Choose to backup SQL databases or MySQL databases that are declared in the connection strings of the website.
