Azure Extended Zones in Perth: Public Preview and Updates

Overview of Azure Extended Zones

Azure Extended Zones are designed to support latency-sensitive and throughput-intensive applications by positioning them closer to end-users, thereby reducing latency and improving overall service delivery[3]. This technology is particularly beneficial for applications requiring quick data processing and fast response times.

Public Preview: Perth - Azure Extended Zones

The Azure Extended Zone in Perth is currently in public preview, with a planned full deployment by mid-2025[1][4]. This initiative is part of Microsoft's broader strategy to expand its global data center footprint and enhance cloud services in Western Australia[1][5].

Key Features and Benefits

  • Reduced Latency: By hosting applications closer to users, Azure Extended Zones reduce latency, improving the efficiency and reliability of essential services[1][5].
  • Localized Services: This technology allows data to be processed and stored locally, addressing unique market demands and compliance requirements in Western Australia[5].
  • Target Sectors: Initial focus areas include government, healthcare, and education, with early customers such as the WA state government and mining firms like Roy Hill and Northern Star Resources[1][5].

Update on Deployment

Microsoft has confirmed that the Azure Extended Zone in Perth will be operational by mid-2025, marking a significant expansion of Microsoft's cloud capabilities in the region[1][4][5].
