azure-storage
Azure Storage Hizmetleri; Blob Storage, Dosya Paylaşımları, Kuyruk Storage, Tablo Storage ve Data Lake’i içerir. Depolama erişim katmanları (hot, cool, cold, archive), her katmanın ne zaman kullanılacağı ve katman karşılaştırması hakkında soruları yanıtlar. Nesne depolama, SMB dosya paylaşımları, async mesajlaşma, NoSQL anahtar-değer ve büyük veri analitiği sağlar. Yaşam döngüsü yönetimini içerir. ŞUNLAR İÇİN KULLANIN: blob storage, dosya paylaşımları, kuyruk storage, tablo storage, data lake, dosya yükleme, blob indirme, depolama hesapları, erişim katmanları, depolama katmanları, hot cool cold archive, depolama katmanı karşılaştırması, depolama katmanları ne zaman kullanılır, yaşam döngüsü yönetimi, Azure Storage kavramları. ŞUNLAR İÇİN KULLANMAYIN: SQL veritabanları, Cosmos DB (azure-prepare kullanın), Event Hubs veya Service Bus ile mesajlaşma (azure-messaging kullanın).

| Service | Use When | MCP Tools | CLI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blob Storage | Objects, files, backups, static content | azure__storage | az storage blob |
| File Shares | SMB file shares, lift-and-shift | - | az storage file |
| Queue Storage | Async messaging, task queues | - | az storage queue |

MCP Server (Preferred)
When Azure MCP is enabled:
azure__storagewith commandstorage_account_list- List storage accountsazure__storagewith commandstorage_container_list- List containers in accountazure__storagewith commandstorage_blob_list- List blobs in containerazure__storagewith commandstorage_blob_get- Download blob contentazure__storagewith commandstorage_blob_put- Upload blob content
If Azure MCP is not enabled: Run /azure:setup or enable via /mcp.

Storage Account Tiers
| Tier | Use Case | Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | General purpose, backup | Milliseconds |
| Premium | Databases, high IOPS | Sub-millisecond |
Blob Access Tiers
| Tier | Access Frequency | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Hot | Frequent | Higher storage, lower access |
| Cool | Infrequent (30+ days) | Lower storage, higher access |
| Cold | Rare (90+ days) | Lower still |
| Archive | Rarely (180+ days) | Lowest storage, rehydration required |
Redundancy Options
| Type | Durability | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| LRS | 11 nines | Dev/test, recreatable data |
| ZRS | 12 nines | Regional high availability |
| GRS | 16 nines | Disaster recovery |
| GZRS | 16 nines | Best durability |
