Can you use virtual machine scale set (VMSS) across multiple regions?
Experience Level: Senior
Tags: Azure CloudAzure Virtual Machine Scale Sets
Answer
No. When you deploy a virtual machine scale set, you can choose to use a single Availability Zone in a region, or multiple zones. When you create a scale set in a single zone, you control which zone all those VM instances run in, and the scale set is managed and autoscales only within that zone.
The virtual machine scale set and all its VMs must always be in the same region.
