Traditional self-managed ones give organizations full control over their database infrastructure, such as picking the software and scaling it up. These databases require significant time commitment along with necessary technical skills plus hardware & software costs, all of which are without dedicated team assistance.

Storage is a critical aspect to consider when working with cloud workloads. High availability storage options within the context of cloud computing involve highly adaptable storage solutions specifically designed for storing vast amounts of data while providing easy access to it. This also aids scalability down the line.

Defining high availability In general terms, high availability refers to the continuous operation of a system with little to no interruption to end users in the event of hardware or software failures, power outages, or other disruptions. It also supports the flexibility and scalability of the database infrastructure.
