1	# Azure Storage Services
2
3	## Services
4
5	\| Service \| Use When \| MCP Tools \| CLI \|
6	\|---------\|----------\|-----------\|-----\|
7	\| Blob Storage \| Objects, files, backups, static content \| `azure__storage` \| `az storage blob` \|
8	\| File Shares \| SMB file shares, lift-and-shift \| - \| `az storage file` \|
9	\| Queue Storage \| Async messaging, task queues \| - \| `az storage queue` \|
10	\| Table Storage \| NoSQL key-value (consider Cosmos DB) \| - \| `az storage table` \|
11	\| Data Lake \| Big data analytics, hierarchical namespace \| - \| `az storage fs` \|
12
13	## MCP Server (Preferred)
14
15	When Azure MCP is enabled:
16
17	- `azure__storage` with command `storage_account_list` - List storage accounts
18	- `azure__storage` with command `storage_container_list` - List containers in account
19	- `azure__storage` with command `storage_blob_list` - List blobs in container
20	- `azure__storage` with command `storage_blob_get` - Download blob content
21	- `azure__storage` with command `storage_blob_put` - Upload blob content
22
23	If Azure MCP is not enabled: Run `/azure:setup` or enable via `/mcp`.
24
25	## CLI Fallback
26
27	```bash
28	# List storage accounts
29	az storage account list --output table
30
31	# List containers
32	az storage container list --account-name ACCOUNT --output table
33
34	# List blobs
35	az storage blob list --account-name ACCOUNT --container-name CONTAINER --output table
36
37	# Download blob
38	az storage blob download --account-name ACCOUNT --container-name CONTAINER --name BLOB --file LOCAL_PATH
39
40	# Upload blob
41	az storage blob upload --account-name ACCOUNT --container-name CONTAINER --name BLOB --file LOCAL_PATH
42	```
43
44	## Storage Account Tiers
45
46	\| Tier \| Use Case \| Performance \|
47	\|------\|----------\|-------------\|
48	\| Standard \| General purpose, backup \| Milliseconds \|
49	\| Premium \| Databases, high IOPS \| Sub-millisecond \|
50
51	## Blob Access Tiers
52
53	\| Tier \| Access Frequency \| Cost \|
54	\|------\|-----------------\|------\|
55	\| Hot \| Frequent \| Higher storage, lower access \|
56	\| Cool \| Infrequent (30+ days) \| Lower storage, higher access \|
57	\| Cold \| Rare (90+ days) \| Lower still \|
58	\| Archive \| Rarely (180+ days) \| Lowest storage, rehydration required \|
59
60	## Redundancy Options
61
62	\| Type \| Durability \| Use Case \|
63	\|------\|------------\|----------\|
64	\| LRS \| 11 nines \| Dev/test, recreatable data \|
65	\| ZRS \| 12 nines \| Regional high availability \|
66	\| GRS \| 16 nines \| Disaster recovery \|
67	\| GZRS \| 16 nines \| Best durability \|

77	## SDK Quick References
78
79	For building applications with Azure Storage SDKs, see the condensed guides:
80
81	- Blob Storage: [Python](references/sdk/azure-storage-blob-py.md) \| [TypeScript](references/sdk/azure-storage-blob-ts.md) \| [Java](references/sdk/azure-storage-blob-java.md) \| [Rust](references/sdk/azure-storage-blob-rust.md)
82	- Queue Storage: [Python](references/sdk/azure-storage-queue-py.md) \| [TypeScript](references/sdk/azure-storage-queue-ts.md)
83	- File Shares: [Python](references/sdk/azure-storage-file-share-py.md) \| [TypeScript](references/sdk/azure-storage-file-share-ts.md)
84	- Data Lake: [Python](references/sdk/azure-storage-file-datalake-py.md)
85	- Tables: [Python](references/sdk/azure-data-tables-py.md) \| [Java](references/sdk/azure-data-tables-java.md)
86
87	For full package listing across all languages, see [SDK Usage Guide](references/sdk-usage.md).

89	## Azure SDKs
90
91	For building applications that interact with Azure Storage programmatically, Azure provides SDK packages in multiple languages (.NET, Java, JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust). See [SDK Usage Guide](references/sdk-usage.md) for package names, installation commands, and quick start examples.
