Note
As a preview feature, the technology presented in this article is subject to Supplemental Terms of Use for Microsoft Azure Previews.
The latest updates are available in the release notes.
Backup and restore
Enable automated backups. Include the --storage-class-backups argument when you create an Azure Arc-enabled PostgreSQL server. Restore has been temporarily removed as we finalize designs and experiences.
High availability
Configuring high availability to recover from infrastructure failures isn't yet available.
Roles and responsibilities
The roles and responsibilities between Microsoft and its customers differ between Azure managed services (Platform As A Service or PaaS) and Azure hybrid (like Azure Arc-enabled PostgreSQL).
Frequently asked questions
The table below summarizes answers to frequently asked questions regarding support roles and responsibilities.
| Question | Azure Platform As A Service (PaaS) | Azure Arc hybrid services |
|---|---|---|
| Who provides the infrastructure? | Microsoft | Customer |
| Who provides the software?* | Microsoft | Microsoft |
| Who does the operations? | Microsoft | Customer |
| Does Microsoft provide SLAs? | Yes | No |
| Who’s in charge of SLAs? | Microsoft | Customer |
* Azure services
Why doesn't Microsoft provide SLAs on Azure Arc hybrid services? Because with a hybrid service, you or your provider owns the infrastructure.
