Azure has no Aurora MySQL-style engine. The closest option is Azure Database for MySQL (flexible server), using the Business Critical tier with zone-redundant HA and read replicas.
- Storage. Aurora MySQL keeps data on a shared cluster volume copied across three AZs, and replicas read the same volume. MySQL flexible server uses a primary and standby with their own storage, and read replicas use asynchronous MySQL replication.
- Features. Aurora MySQL adds Backtrack, fast cloning, Global Database, and Serverless v2. Flexible server has no equivalents for those.
