Production Database Replicas (Sandboxes)

With the Basic, Flex, and Enterprise offerings, you receive one additional production configuration database replica, which is housed in the production environment and treated as a production database only for backup and retention purpose. Use the production database replica for reporting and configuration testing.

Production database replicas offer different availability and service levels than production environments. See the availability and service information for Non-Production Environments.

Additional Production Database Replica

With Basic, Flex, and Enterprise offerings, you can purchase an additional production database replica, with the same characteristics as the first replica.

Additional Non-Production Database Replica

With Enterprise offerings only, you can purchase additional databases for your always-on test and development non-production environments or any additional non-production environments that you have purchased.
