Are Azure Stream Analytics Job Resilient and zone redundant

Hi,

I am looking at moving the current solution I have designed for a client to a production ready service. We are using a number of Azure resources from IaaS to PaaS. I am now looking at making this service production ready and need to understand the capabilities of Azure Stream Analytics. The documentation I have looked at is not very clear about the resiliency of Azure Stream Analytics jobs.

I have several ASA Jobs running and was looking at moving these to Clusters if that is what offers Zone Redundancy resiliency. Can someone please advise if resiliency is built into ASA Jobs or if Clusters offer this capability.

Thanks

Mike

    Hello @GRAY Mike ,

    according to the documentation, "Azure Stream Analytics is a job service, so you don't have to spend time managing clusters".

    you don't have to worry about downtime with a 99.9% SLA at the job level

    It's recommended to run multiple units so the load is shared.

    Check out the documentation about building resilient and mission-critical applications too:

    Regardless of Azure Stream Analytics' SLA guarantee and how careful you run your end-to-end application, outages happen. If your application is mission critical, you need to be prepared for outages in order to recover gracefully.
