The Developer SKU is intended for non-production use. It doesn't support zone redundancy. However, in the event of a region failure, Azure Bastion attempts to route traffic through different infrastructure.

**New resources:** When you deploy a new Bastion resource in a [region that supports availabiilty zones](#regions-supported), you select the specific zones you want to deploy to. Select multiple zones for zone redundancy. You can't change the availability zone setting after your Bastion resource is deployed.

When you select the availability zones to use, you're selecting the logical availability zone. If you deploy other workload components in a different Azure subscription, they might use a different logical availability zone number to access the same physical availabilty zone.

When you initiate an SSH or RDP session, it can be routed to an Azure Bastion instance in any of the availability zones you selected.

73

It's possible that a session might be sent to an Azure Bastion instance in a different availabilty zone to the virtual machine you're connecting to. For most scenarios, the small amount of cross-zone latency isn't significant. However, if you have unusually stringent latency requirements for your Azure Bastion workloads, you should deploy a dedicated single-zone Azure Bastion instance in the virtual machine's availability zone. This configuration doesn't provide zone redundancy, and we don't recommend it for most customers.

Azure Bastion supports reaching VMs in globally peered virtual networks, but if the region that hosts your Azure Bastion resource is unavailable, you won't be able to use your Bastion resource. For higher resiliency, if you deploy your overall solution into multiple regions with separate virtual networks in each region, you should deploy Azure Bastion into each region.
