DuploCloud enables users to create Azure Storage Accounts, File Shares, and generate Shared Access Signatures (SAS). Azure Storage Accounts are essential for storing various types of data in the cloud, including blobs (unstructured data), files (managed file shares), queues (messaging), and tables (structured NoSQL data).
In DuploCloud, Storage Accounts are provisioned with the Standard_LRS
SKU type, which provides locally redundant storage, ensuring high availability and durability by replicating data across multiple physical locations within a region.
For more information about Azure Storage Accounts, refer to the official Azure documentation.
In the DuploCloud Portal, navigate to Cloud Services -> Storage Account.
In the Name field, give the Storage Account a name.
Click Create.
Navigate to Cloud Services -> Storage Account.
From the NAME column, select the Storage Account to which you want to add a data source.
Select the tab for the data storage type you want to add (Container, File Share, Queue, Table, Private Endpoint, Alerts).
Click Add.
Enter a name for your data source and additional information as needed.
Click Add, Submit, or Create. The data storage source is added to the Storage Account.
