AZ-104 - Implement and Manage Storage - Section 2.3

Configure Azure Files and Azure Blob Storage including lifecycle management and access tiers.

Configure Azure Files shares over SMB or NFS protocols and choose between Hot, Cool, Cold, and Archive blob access tiers based on access frequency and cost trade-offs. Define lifecycle management policies to automatically transition blobs between tiers or delete them after a set period, and use object replication to copy blobs asynchronously to a second storage account.

An administrator needs to move data directly from an Azure Blob Storage container into an Azure file share. Can a single AzCopy operation copy data between these two services?

  • AYes Correct
  • BNo
AzCopy copies to, from, and between storage services, including Blob Storage and Azure Files. AzCopy can target Azure Blob Storage and Azure Files and copy between them, for example copying data from Blob Storage containers to Azure File shares or vice versa.

Why A is correct: Correct. AzCopy can target Azure Blob Storage and Azure Files and copy between them, for example copying data from Blob Storage containers to Azure File shares or vice versa.

Why B is wrong: Answering no is wrong because AzCopy explicitly supports cross-service copies between Blob Storage and Azure Files in either direction.
