storage redundancy

About this tag
Storage redundancy on Windows systems and cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure involves protecting data against hardware failures, thermal events, and other disruptions. Discussions cover Azure West Europe outages caused by datacenter thermal events that triggered automated shutdowns of storage scale units, impacting services such as Virtual Machines and Azure Backup. On-premises topics include using Intel Rapid Storage Technology to create RAID 1 volumes for disk redundancy, with caution about potential data loss when adding drives to existing systems. Azure Backup is highlighted as a cloud-based solution for enterprise data protection, supporting disaster recovery and ransomware defense. These threads emphasize the importance of redundancy in maintaining availability and integrity of stored data.
