SQL Server Backups To Azure Blob Storage

Kevin Hill shows  how to configure SQL Server to back up a database to Azure blob storage:

Note the “no blobs found” in the container.  After a successful backup, you will see it here.

Click on ‘Container Properties’ to get the URL for this specific container…this will be used in Backup and Restore statements.  Click the button next to the URL to copy it.  For now just remember where this is or copy it to Notepad, Query window etc.  When we start to build our T-SQL statements, we will need both the Access key from earlier and the URL.

Kevin gives clear, step by step instructions on the process.
