This is one area where Azure is leading with both Azure SQL and DocumentDB supporting geo-replication.


nope since azure is extremly expensive and also you need several accounts for different regions. i.e. you can't create servers in germany with a whole new account / credits / support.


This is about capabilities, not price. Azure Germany is the only one that requires a different account due to German legal issues. The rest of the datacenters are all connected from the same account.


That's because Azure in Germany is not offered by Microsoft but T-Systems. Microsoft just supplies the tech. For the other regions one account suffices (I'm not sure about China where they also use a partner).
