Introducing How to Use Azure Blob Storage

In this hands-on lab, we will use the Azure Portal to create and use blob storage. We will log in to the Azure Portal, create a storage account, and create a blob storage container. Finally, we will use the Azure Portal to upload sample files to our blob container and retrieve and view our blob files. After completing this lab, you will have gained the experience required to work with blob storage using the Azure Portal. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/connect-an-app-to-azure-storage/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/store-app-data-with-azure-blob-storage/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/upload-data-to-azure-data-lake-storage/
