Explanation:
Store Azure SQL Database backups for up to 10 years.
Many applications have regulatory, compliance, or other business purposes that require you to retain database
backups beyond the 7-35 days provided by Azure SQL Database automatic backups. By using the long-term
backup retention feature, you can store your SQL database backups in an Azure Recovery Services vault for up
to 10 years.
