Getting Started With Azure Storage API In Python For Beginners

Azure Blob storage is Microsoft's object storage solution for the cloud. Blob storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data. In today's lesson, we are going to learn how to get started with Azure Cloud Storage API in Python.

This is going to be a beginner tutorial, but I do expect you have at least some experience working with Azure and Python.

Thanks, This is great!! I JUST had a task at work to setup an automted job to transfer files to Azure blob a couple weeks ago. I ended up using the SSIS Azure toolkit....but i'll do it this way next time!

Hello. I have two questions.

Do I have to pay to use these azure services?

Are these files that you have uploaded going to be there in azure cloud forever? I mean, if I do not upload more files for a while, does azure delete my files after a specific period of time?

Thanks
