This section delves into the intricacies of managing and configuring Azure storage accounts. It provides comprehensive insights into various types of Azure storage accounts, their utility, and the step-by-step process of creating and configuring these accounts. The content will enhance your comprehension of the inner workings of storage accounts within the Azure environment.
The chapter will expound on securing your storage account through Azure firewall configuration and elucidate the integration of storage accounts with virtual networks. Further, it will elaborate on the concept of replication, detailing how the replication process operates and how data synchronization can be achieved across different regions.
An Azure storage account serves as a cloud-based solution for the storage of both structured and unstructured data, including data disks of virtual machines (VMs) and various file types. It offers availability, durability, and security, allowing access via HTTP/HTTPS from anywhere. Refer to Figure 5.1 for a visual representation of the storage account data structure.
Storage for VMs Data: This involves storing data in a blob storage account under the page blob, specifically for Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) files of VMs.
Structured Data: Commonly used for cosmos database (DB) tables, this type of data is stored in a structured manner for easy retrieval of results.
Unstructured Data: Unstructured data, such as log files, images, movies, or archival data, is stored without a specific format, enabling faster results.
Azure storage accounts come in three types:
Blob Storage Account: Used for unstructured data like backups, JPEG, AVI files, etc. It offers cool, hot, and archive access tiers.
Azure Blob Storage Account Tier
Access Tiers:
General Purpose V1 (GPv1): Legacy accounts supporting blobs, files, queues, and tables, with replication options like LRS, GRS, and RA-GRS.
General Purpose V2 (GPv2): Upgraded version for blobs, files, queues, and tables, supporting LRS, GRS, RA-GRS, ZRS, and cold/hot storage.
New Replications: GZRS (Zone-Redundant Storage) and RA-GZRS (Read-Access Geo-Zone-Redundant Storage) in preview.
Premium Storage Accounts: Utilize SSD disks for high-performance and low-latency disk support, primarily for mission-critical applications or production environments.
