Reliability in Azure Well-Architected Framework

Image
Reliability the one pillar concept of Azure Architected Framework . What is it? Where we can use this and how we can use this in Azure? What we need to know to utilize this effectively? Let's go through some points to discover reliability in details. Build-in Resiliency features in Azure Platform: • Azure Storage, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Cosmos DB all provide built-in data replication across availability zones and regions. • Azure managed disks are automatically placed in different storage scale units to limit the effects of hardware failures. • Virtual machines (VMs) in an availability set are spread across several fault domains. Spreading VMs across fault domains limits the impact of physical hardware failures, network outages, or power interruptions. • Availability Zones are physically separate locations within each Azure region. With availability zones, you can design and operate applications, and databases that automatically transition between zones without inter...

The new challenge - Azure Well-Architected Framework

 Microsoft introducing Azure Well-Architected Framework   - A set of guiding principles that you can use to improve the quality of a workload. This framework consists of below five pillars of architectural excellence: Reliability |  Security  |  Cost optimization  |  Operational excellence  |  Performance efficiency Six supporting elements surrounding the Well-Architected Framework . This make sense, how these pillar work and how they can bring the value to our IT Work Execution Lifestyle.    Great! Reliability - Platform Reliability and Application Reliability A reliable workload is both resilient and available. Resiliency is the ability of the system to recover from failures and continue to function.  The goal of resiliency is to return the application to a fully functioning state after a failure occurs. Availability is whether your users can access your workload when they need to. How do we make our IT enviro...
