# 07 - Administer Azure Storage
|
||
|
||
## Configure Storage Accounts
|
||
|
||
In this demonstration, we will create a storage account.
|
||
|
||
**Reference**: [Create a storage account](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-account-create?tabs=azure-portal)
|
||
|
||
1. Use the Azure portal.
|
||
|
||
1. Review the purpose of storage accounts.
|
||
|
||
1. Search for and select **Storage Accounts**.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a basic storage account.
|
||
|
||
- Discuss the requirements around naming a storage account and the need for the name to be unique in Azure.
|
||
|
||
- Review the different storage kinds. For example, general-purpose v2.
|
||
|
||
- Review the access tier selections. For example, the cool and hot tiers.
|
||
|
||
- Other tabs and settings will be covered in other demonstrations.
|
||
|
||
1. Create the storage account and wait for the resource to deploy.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Configure Blob Storage
|
||
|
||
In this demonstration, we will explore blob storage.
|
||
|
||
**Note:** These steps require a storage account.
|
||
|
||
**Reference**: [Quickstart: Upload, download, and list blobs](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/blobs/storage-quickstart-blobs-portal)
|
||
|
||
1. Navigate to a storage account in the Azure portal.
|
||
|
||
1. Review the purpose of blob storage.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a blob container. Review the level of access for the container. For example, private (no anonymous access).
|
||
|
||
1. Upload a blob to the container. As you have time review the advanced settings. For example, blob type and blob size.
|
||
|
||
## Configure Storage Security
|
||
|
||
In this demonstration, we will create a shared access signature.
|
||
|
||
**Note:** This demonstration requires a storage account, with a blob container, and an uploaded file.
|
||
|
||
**Reference**: [Create SAS tokens for storage containers](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/create-sas-tokens?source=recommendations&view=form-recog-3.0.0)
|
||
|
||
1. Select a blob or file that you want to secure.
|
||
|
||
1. Generate a shared access signature (SAS). Review the permissions, start and expiry times, and allowed protocols.
|
||
|
||
1. Use the SAS URL to ensure the resource displays.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Configure Azure Files
|
||
|
||
In this demonstration, we will work with files shares and snapshots.
|
||
|
||
**Note:** These steps require a storage account.
|
||
|
||
**Reference**: [Quickstart for managing Azure file shares](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/files/storage-how-to-use-files-portal?tabs=azure-portal)
|
||
|
||
1. Review the purpose of file shares.
|
||
|
||
1. Access a storage account and click **Files**.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a file share. Review quotas, uploading files, and adding directories to organize the information.
|
||
|
||
1. Create a file share snapshot. Review when to use snapshots and how they are different from backups. As you have time, upload a file, take a snapshot, delete the file, and restore the snapshot.
|
||
|
||
**Reference**: [Get started with Storage Explorer](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/vs-azure-tools-storage-manage-with-storage-explorer?tabs=windows)
|
||
|
||
1. Install the Storage Explorer or use the Storage Browser.
|
||
|
||
1. Review how to browse and create storage resources. For example, add a blob container.
|
||
|
||
**Reference**: [Copy or move data to Azure Storage by using AzCopy v10](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-use-azcopy-v10?toc=/azure/storage/files/toc.json)
|
||
|
||
1. Discuss when to use AzCopy. View the help, **azcopy /?**.
|
||
|
||
1. Scroll down the **Samples** section. As you have time, try any of the examples.
