MS Azure : Restore of Azure Database

Backup of Azure Database


In Microsoft Azure Database, Restores can be done to the logical server hosting the database or to another region.
Local Restore

1. A new database on the same logical server recovered to specified point in time.
2. A database on the same logical server recovered to the deletion time.
3. you cannot overwrite an existing database.

Note : If you want to replace a database with a restored copy, you can rename the orignal and then rename the restored database.

Geo Restore

1. A new database on any server on any region up to the latest geo-replicated backup.

Note : Geo-Restores have an 1hour RPO due to the possible delay in geo-replication.
