Whether you’re analyzing data logs, processing events, or supporting AI-based applications, Instaclustr’s solution on Azure is designed to deliver unmatched performance and reliability. How we’ve improved since preview -------------------------------- Since the preview release, we’ve added advanced features bringing feature parity with [Instaclustr for ClickHouse on AWS including](https://www.instaclustr.com/blog/clickhouse-is-now-ga/): - Ability to create [automated and manual backups](https://www.instaclustr.com/support/documentation/clickhouse/using-a-clickhouse-cluster/clickhouse-cluster-backup-and-restore/) of your data, allowing you to restore to one of the previously taken backups. - Support for [Tiered Storage](https://www.instaclustr.com/support/documentation/clickhouse/useful-concepts/creating-a-clickhouse-cluster-with-tiered-storage/), allowing clusters to be configured to offload data based on defined patterns onto Azure Blob Storage and Amazon S3. - One-click provisioning of network load balancers to ensure high availability and optimized resource utilization by distributing queries across multiple nodes, thereby avoiding bottlenecks and providing a single connection endpoint for simplified client configuration. - [Azure Marketplace integration](https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/netapp.instaclustr-riia-offer?tab=overview) to make it easier for customers to use their existing credit and billing processes to sign up for and purchase our services via this platform. This [new offering](https://www.instaclustr.com/platform/managed-clickhouse/) expands Instaclustr’s portfolio of managed open source technologies like Apache Kafka®, Valkey™, and PostgreSQL®. Kafka, in particular, is frequently chosen in data preparation pipelines for ClickHouse workloads while PostgreSQL and Valkey/Redis are supported natively by ClickHouse via specific table engines. All these offerings can be manually configured to work with ClickHouse today, and we will be working in the coming months to provide a simplified and seamless experience when using these technologies together on the Instaclustr Managed Platform. This underscores our dedication to providing comprehensive, fully managed solutions that help businesses harness the power of open source technologies without the operational hassles. Additionally, we have updated the lifecycle states for our older supported ClickHouse versions (as per our [lifecycle policy](https://www.instaclustr.com/support/documentation/useful-information/lifecycle-policy/)).
