Reliability
Reliability is the ability of a system to recover from failures and continue functioning. It is a fundamental pillar of the Microsoft Azure Well-Architected Framework.
The cloud's decentralized design inherently supports a reliable and resilient infrastructure. This design allows resources to be deployed across multiple regions worldwide. If one region experiences a catastrophic event, other regions remain operational. You can design your applications to automatically leverage this increased reliability, and in some cases, the cloud environment itself will automatically shift to a different region without any action required on your part. This global scale ensures that your applications remain available and resilient, regardless of localized disruptions.
Predictability
Predictability in the cloud enables you to move forward with confidence. It can be focused on two main aspects: performance predictability and cost predictability. Both are heavily influenced by the Microsoft Azure Well-Architected Framework.
Performance Predictability
Performance predictability involves anticipating the resources needed to deliver a positive experience for your customers. Cloud features like autoscaling, load balancing, and high availability support performance predictability:
Cost Predictability
Cost predictability focuses on forecasting and managing the expenses associated with cloud services. The cloud allows you to:
