We actively monitor the following metrics:
- Performance Monitoring: CPU memory, services and disk space.

Business Continuity for Cloud Services

Azure’s goal for business continuity is to enhance recoverability and resiliency across all independently recoverable services, whether they are customer-facing (part of an Azure offering) or internally-supported platform services.
In the event of a complete Azure data center outage, where the customers’ architecture has been configured with Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS) replication, Microsoft automatically brings up the environment in the replicated data center. No intervention is required, and the customer will be able to continue to work without much disruption.
