Setting Up MS Azure Cloud Storage

If generated reports are stored in MS Azure cloud storage, you need to configure integration with MS Azure cloud storage.

Configuring MS Azure Cloud Storage Settings in MS Azure Portal

1. Log in to MS Azure Portal.
2. Go to Storage accounts and click Add.

3. Define all the required cloud storage parameters ensuring the following parameters are specified as follows:

   • Deployment model: select Resource manager
   • Account kind: select Blob storage
   • Replication: select Locally-redundant storage (LRS)
   • Performance: select Standard
   • Access tier (default): select Hot
   • Secure transfer required: select Disabled
   • Subscription: select your subscription from the list
   • Resource group: select your existing resource group
4. Click Create.

5. Now get the connection string that will be used for integration of the RDE application and MS Azure cloud storage:

   In the list of storage accounts, click on the name of the recently created account and click Access keys.

   In the key 1 section, copy the connection string.

This connection string must be specified during the RDE application instance creation in CloudBlue Commerce.
