Microsoft Azure offers many options for storing and processing data. Understanding the difference is essential if you work in the Azure cloud or want to improve and demonstrate your skills with certifications. In this video, we take a look at Azure blob storage. We start by reviewing resources used to store blobs, including storage accounts and containers. Then, we move on to storage tiers and options for redundancy. At the end is a demo that includes creating a storage account and container, creating a SAS token for authentication, and using AZCopy and Azure Storage Explorer to manage blobs.
