AZ-104: Microsoft Azure Administrator Full Course - Azure Replication Strategy - Theory

The video tutorial explains the importance of a replication strategy to protect data against failures at various levels, such as regional, data center, or rack level. It introduces Azure's replication options, including Local Redundant Storage (LRS), Zone Redundant Storage (ZRS), Geo Redundant Storage (GRS), and GeoZone Redundant Storage (GZRS). Each replication type is discussed in terms of its functionality, cost, and suitability for different applications, emphasizing the need for redundancy to ensure data availability and durability.
