Lab Author: Torben Boeck Jensen
Torben Boeck Jensen
Torben is passionate about creating - taking an idea from inception until it's a full-fledged system. He enjoys working both analytically and creatively – maturing the idea and seeing how far it can be taken. Working as a consultant he has helped a large variety of clients over the years - ranging from developing line-of-business applications in the financial sector to data crunching for the aviation industry. He has worked with the .NET framework for more than 15 years, and is adept at traversi... moreng that ecosystem, and enjoys working on all aspects of systems development - tinkering with business logic implementation, setting up data structures, bridging the gap between persistence and visualization. Cloud technology is an integral part of everyday work for him, and in recent years he has focused much of his attention on honing his Azure skills. In his spare time, he enjoys hiking, running, reading, and spending time with his daughters, who make sure to keep him very active.

  • Prerequisites
Challenge

Start the Azure Cloud Shell

You will open up a PowerShell prompt from which you will later issue commands to modify blob storage.

Challenge

Transition Blobs to Cool and Archive Tiers

First, you will get an overview of the structure of the pre-configured storage container, and then you will transition the blobs in the public container to the cool tier, and the blobs in the archive container to the archive tier using Powershell.

Challenge

Set up Lifecycle Management Policies

You will set up a lifecycle management policy to automatically transition blobs in the public container to the cool tier if they have not been modified for 30 days, and to the archive tier if they have not been modified for 90 days.
