Hello Team,
- Wanted to understand the Okta Availability is based on the subscription, or is it same availability commitment for every customer irrespective of subscription?
- The subscription is based on the Region(EMEA, APAC, LATAM)? or its independent of the regions?
- Can we install Okta AD Agent in Azure Public Cloud to communicate with AD?
- Assume we host AD into Azure infra for Disaster Recovery or it has to be On-Prim always?
- If it is possible to Install AD Agent in Azure is the same installer will work and what is the port number it connects to?

Hello @VijayD.76076 (Customer),
Thanks for posting.
1. Wanted to understand the Okta Availability is based on the subscription or is it the same availability commitment for every customer irrespective of subscription?
Okta will now deliver 99.99% uptime to every customer around the world, whether you are using our free developer edition or are an enterprise customer—all at no additional cost.
More information about this here: https://www.okta.com/blog/2020/07/99-point-99-percent-uptime-for-all/
2. The subscription is based on the Region(EMEA, APAC, LATAM)? or it is independent of the regions?
The subscription is based on the features you would like to get, here is a pricing list with features included:

3. Can we install Okta AD Agent in Azure Public Cloud to communicate with AD?
We typically do not have a direct integration path for this but these links I found maybe a very helpful place to start:
Azure AD federation compatibility list ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/hybrid/how-to-connect-fed-compatibility )
Typical workflow for integrating Azure Active Directory using SAML ( https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Provisioning/azure/azure-integrate-main.htm )
4. Assume we host AD into Azure infra for Disaster Recovery or it has to be On-Prim always?
It can be hosted into Azure: https://azure.microsoft.com/es-es/blog/setting-up-active-directory-for-a-disaster-recovery-environment-2/?cdn=disable
5. If it is possible to Install AD Agent in Azure is the same installer will work and what is the port number it connects to?
The SAML integration process will guide you through the needed installer. Workflow described above.
Also, our Professional Services ( https://www.okta.com/services/professional-services/ ) team can also help build out these types of integrations as well (as just another option)
