 Use the import and export functionality in Azure Cache for Redis as a data management operation. You import data into your cache instance or export data from a cache instance using an Azure Cache for Redis Database (RDB) snapshot. The snapshots are imported or exported using a blob in an Azure Storage Account.
 
 Import/Export is supported in the Premium, Enterprise, and Enterprise Flash tiers:
+
 - _Export_ - you can export your Azure Cache for Redis RDB snapshots to a Page Blob (Premium tier) or Block Blob (Enterprise tiers).
 - _Import_ - you can import your Azure Cache for Redis RDB snapshots from either a Page Blob or a Block Blob.
 
 You can use Import/Export to migrate between different Azure Cache for Redis instances or populate the cache with data before use.

 Use import to bring Redis compatible RDB files from any Redis server running in any cloud or environment, including Redis running on Linux, Windows, or any cloud provider such as Amazon Web Services and others. Importing data is an easy way to create a cache with prepopulated data. During the import process, Azure Cache for Redis loads the RDB files from Azure storage into memory and then inserts the keys into the cache.
 
 > [!NOTE]
-> Before beginning the import operation, ensure that your Redis Database (RDB) file or files are uploaded into page or block blobs in Azure storage, in the same region and subscription as your Azure Cache for Redis instance. For more information, see [Get started with Azure Blob storage](../storage/blobs/storage-quickstart-blobs-dotnet.md). If you exported your RDB file using the [Azure Cache for Redis Export](#export) feature, your RDB file is already stored in a page blob and is ready for importing.

 The Azure Cache for Redis _persistence_ feature is primarily a data durability feature. Conversely, the _import/export_ functionality is designed as a method to make periodic data backups for point-in-time recovery.
 <!-- Kyle I rewrote this based on another convo. Also I want the primary answer to be in the first paragraph. -->
-When _persistence_ is configured, your cache persists a snapshot of the data to disk, based on a configurable backup frequency. The data is written with a Redis-proprietary binary format. If a catastrophic event occurs that disables both the primary and the replica caches, the cache data is restored automatically using the most recent snapshot.
