-Disaster recovery (DR) is about recovering from high-impact events, such as natural disasters or failed deployments that result in downtime and data loss. Regardless of the cause, the best remedy for a disaster is a well-defined and tested DR plan and an application design that actively supports DR. Before you begin to think about creating your disaster recovery plan, see [Recommendations for designing a disaster recovery strategy](/azure/well-architected/reliability/disaster-recovery). 
-
-
-When it comes to DR, Microsoft uses the [shared responsibility model](../concept-shared-responsibility.md). In a shared responsibility model, Microsoft ensures that the baseline infrastructure and platform services are available. At the same time, many Azure services don't automatically replicate data or fall back from a failed region to cross-replicate to another enabled region. For those services, you're responsible for setting up a disaster recovery plan that works for your workload. Most services that run on Azure platform as a service (PaaS) offerings provide features and guidance to support DR and you can use [service-specific features to support fast recovery](../reliability-guidance-overview.md) to help develop your DR plan.

 # Reliability in Azure Deployment Environments 
 
-This article describes reliability support in Azure Deployment Environments, and covers intra-regional resiliency with availability zones and inter region resiliency with disaster recovery. For a more detailed overview of reliability in Azure, see [Azure reliability](/azure/well-architected/resiliency/overview).

 ## Availability zone support 
 
 [!INCLUDE [Availability zone description](../reliability/includes/reliability-availability-zone-description-include.md)]
 
-
 Availability zone support for all resources in Azure Deployment Environments is enabled automatically. There's no action for you to take. 
 
-Regions supported: 
-- West US 2
-- South Central US
-- UK South
-- West Europe
-- East US
+The following regions support both Deployment Environments and availability zones:
 - Australia East
+- Brazil South
+- Canada Central
+- Central India
+- Central US
+- East Asia
+- East US
 - East US 2
-- North Europe
-- West US 3
+- Germany West Central
+- Italy North
 - Japan East
-- East Asia
-- Central India
 - Korea Central
-- Canada Central
-
-For more detailed information on availability zones in Azure, see [Regions and availability zones](../reliability/availability-zones-overview.md). 
+- North Europe
+- South Africa North
+- South Central US
+- Southeast Asia
+- Sweden Central
+- Switzerland North
+- UK South
+- West Europe
+- West US 2
+- West US 3
 
 ## Cross-region disaster recovery and business continuity
 
 [!INCLUDE [introduction to disaster recovery](../reliability/includes/reliability-disaster-recovery-description-include.md)]
 
 You can replicate the following Deployment Environments resources in an alternate region to prevent data loss if a cross-region failover occurs:
 
-- Dev center
-- Project
-- Catalog
+- Dev centers
+- Projects
+- Catalogs
 - Catalog items
-- Dev center environment type
-- Project environment type
+- Dev center environment types
+- Project environment types
 - Environments
