+For zone-redundant HA, while there is no major performance impact for read workloads across availability zones, there might be up to 40 percent drop in write-query latency. The increase in write-latency is due to synchronous replication across Availability zone. The write latency impact is generally twice in zone redundant HA compared to the same zone HA. For same-zone HA, because the primary and the standby replica is in the same zone, the replication latency and consequently the synchronous write latency is lower. In summary, if write-latency is more critical for you compared to availability, you may want to choose same-zone HA but if availability and resiliency of your data is more critical for you at the expense of write-latency drop, you must choose zone-redundant HA. To measure the accurate impact of the latency drop in HA setup, we recommend you to perform performance testing for your workload to take an informed decision.</br>
