> \* For [Hyperscale](sql-database-service-tier-hyperscale.md) databases, the time to complete a geo-restore operation is proportional to the size of data in the database. This is in contrast to the [point-in-time restore](sql-database-recovery-using-backups.md) of a Hyperscale database within the same region, where restore time does not depend on database size. For larger Hyperscale databases, geo-restore time may exceed 12-hour RTO.

### Can I perform geo-restore with a Hyperscale database

Yes. Geo-restore is fully supported. Unlike point-in-time restore, geo-restore requires a long running size-of-data operation.

Yes. Geo-restore is fully supported. Unlike point-in-time restore, geo-restore requires a size-of-data operation. Data files are copied in parallel, so the duration of this operation depends primarily on the size of the largest file in the database, rather than on total database size. Geo-restore time will be significantly shorter if the database is restored in an Azure region that is [paired](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/best-practices-availability-paired-regions) with the region of the source database.
