Azure SQL Geo-restore
You can restore a SQL database on any server in any Azure region from the most recent geo-replicated backups. Geo-restore uses a geo-replicated backup as its source. It can be requested even if the database or datacenter is inaccessible due to an outage.
Geo-restore is the default recovery option when your database is unavailable because of an incident in the hosting region. You can restore the database to a server in any other region. There is a delay between when a backup is taken and when it is geo-replicated to an Azure blob in a different region. As a result, the restored database can be up to one hour behind the orignal database. The following illustration shows restore of the database from the last available backup in another region.
