Azure Data Centres and Edge Locations
Peek inside how Azure data centres are built for security and reliability, and learn about edge infrastructure such as Azure Edge Zones that bring compute closer to users.
Inside an Azure Data Centre
An Azure data centre holds thousands of servers, plus redundant power, backup generators, and water cooling — so your apps stay online through power hiccups.
Physical Security at Azure Facilities
Azure data centres are heavily guarded with physical security — fencing, CCTV, biometrics, and badge access. Only staff with a real need get in, and every entry is logged.
