Enable geo-replication for container images. Best practice: Store your container images in Azure Container Registry and geo-replicate the registry to each AKS region. To deploy and run your applications in AKS, you need a way to store and pull the container images. Container Registry integrates with AKS, so it can securely store your container images or Helm charts. Container Registry supports multimaster geo-replication to automatically replicate your images to Azure regions around the world. Geo-replication is a feature of Premium SKU container registries. Note: When you use Container Registry geo-replication to pull images from the same region, the results are: Faster: You pull images from high-speed, low-latency network connections within the same Azure region. More reliable: If a region is unavailable, your AKS cluster pulls the images from an available container registry. Cheaper: There's no network egress charge between datacenters.
