Terms in this definition
- IPv6
Addressing based on 128 bits, available in Standard public IPs and dual-stack VNets. Public IPs for Azure Firewall and Bastion have to be IPv4.
- DHCP
Azure delivers each NIC's private IP to the guest operating system using this protocol, so keep the OS set to obtain addresses automatically and configure any static IP on the Azure NIC.
- Table options
Set only at creation with
OPTIONS, these key-value storage settings can't be altered or dropped afterwards; on Delta tables they also show up among the table properties. - failover
Switching workloads from production VMs over to replicas at the recovery site; replica, CDP replica and storage plans do this. The plan is left in FAILOVER until it is undone, made permanent or followed by failback.
- RAMP
The approach used by the Cloud Adoption Framework's Manage methodology to structure cloud operations: teams, duties, processes and tools. It divides what the central platform handles from what each workload handles.
