-If an outage happens in North Europe for example, the automatic database failover is initiated by the failover group, which effectively results in moving the application to the next region ahead of schedule (1). In that case the US East is the only remaining secondary region until North Europe is back online. The remaining two regions serve the customers in all three geographies by switching roles. Azure scheduler has to be adjusted accordingly. Because the remaining regions get additional user traffic from Europe, the application's performance is impacted not only by additional latency but also by an increased number of end user connections. Once the outage is mitigated in North Europe, the secondary database there is immediately synchronized with the current primary. The following diagram illustrates an outage in North Europe:
