How can I replicate a premium file shares storage account across different regions?

I have a premium file shares storage account in the north-europe region and I would want to have a replica of it in the west-europe region to use in a DR scenario. A replication of type GRS or GZRS would have been the solution for this problem but unfortunately it is not supported for this type of storage account. How can I achieve this?

For a typical DR scenario you should configure Azure Backup for Premium Files. You can restore to storage accounts in other regions. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-files

For a more "enterprise" scenario, you may want to consider using Azure NetApp Files which provides more comprehensive replication accross regions. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-netapp-files/cross-region-replication-introduction
