"Our Endpoint Privilege Management Cloud solution is hosted within Microsoft Azure Regions that are based on customer geographic location and preference which can be selected from our available options.
Each Azure Region contains approximately three Availability Zones and utilize SQL databases and SQL servers which serve as the primary storage for all aspects of the solution within the cloud environment.
When the instance is created during the initial deployment, backups are scheduled and performed for transactional logs (every 5 to 10 minutes), differential backups (every 12 hours), and full backups (every week) to the SQL server. These backups are then stored in a read-access geo-redundant (RA-GRS) storage blob that is replicated to a paired data center within the customer's chosen Azure Region. This aides in ensuring that the cloud instance has appropriate mechanisms in place for availability in the event of a data center outage." - Outage reporting
