Explanation
Box 1: 3 -\nLocally Redundant Storage (LRS) provides highly durable and available storage within a single location (sub region). We maintain an equivalent of 3 copies (replicas) of your data within the primary location as described in our SOSP paper; this ensures that we can recover from common failures (disk, node, rack) without impacting your storage account's availability and durability.\nBox 2: Access tier -\nChange the access tier from Hot to Cool.\nNote: Azure storage offers different access tiers, which allow you to store blob object data in the most cost-effective manner. The available access tiers include:\nHot - Optimized for storing data that is accessed frequently.\nCool - Optimized for storing data that is infrequently accessed and stored for at least 30 days.\nArchive - Optimized for storing data that is rarely accessed and stored for at least 180 days with flexible latency requirements (on the order of hours).
