What can you use as the destination of the imported data?

B

Azure Import/Export service is used to securely import large amounts of data to Azure Blob storage and Azure Files by shipping disk drives to an Azure datacenter.

Azure Import/Export service is used to securely import large amounts of data to Azure Blob storage, Azure Files, or Azure Data Box (a physical hardware device) from an on-premises location or from another cloud provider.

To answer your question, you can use Azure Blob storage as the destination of the imported data when using the Azure Import/Export job.

Azure Blob storage is a massively scalable and highly available object store that is ideal for storing large amounts of unstructured data such as text or binary data, including images, videos, and log files. It can store and serve large blobs or files up to several terabytes in size.

To perform an Azure Import/Export job to Azure Blob storage, you will need to create an import or export job in the Azure portal or by using the Azure Import/Export REST API.

After you create the job, you will need to prepare your data and a disk for shipment. You can use Azure Data Box disk or your own disks that meet the specified requirements.

Then, you copy your data to the prepared disks and ship them to the Microsoft data center. Once the disks arrive, Microsoft uploads the data to Azure Blob storage or Azure Files, depending on the destination you specified in the job.

In summary, when using Azure Import/Export job, you can use Azure Blob storage as the destination of the imported data, which provides a scalable, secure, and highly available object store for storing large amounts of unstructured data.
