1. **Identify file to export.** The export process is triggered when a user places a file to export into a designated area within the chamber. A chamber Admin or chamber User copies the file to the data out folder within the pipeline. The data pipeline detects the copied file and creates a file object. The file creation activity is traceable in the logs and enables the next step of the data pipeline.

The 'M' family of VM size series are one of Azure's ultra memory-optimized VM instances. They're designed for memory-intensive workloads, such as large in-memory databases, data warehousing, and high-performance computing (HPC). Equipped with substantial RAM capacities and high vCPU capabilities, M-family VMs support applications and services that require massive amounts of memory and significant computational power. This makes them well-suited for handling tasks like real-time data processing, complex scientific simulations, and large-scale enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, ensuring peak performance for the most demanding data-centric applications.

A typical disaster recovery workflow starts with a failure of a critical service in your primary region. As the issue gets investigated, Azure publishes an expected time for the primary region to recover. If this timeframe is not acceptable for business continuity, and the problem does not impact your secondary region, you would start the process to fail over to the secondary region.
