# Microsoft Azure Blob Storage

Storware Backup & Recovery supports integration with MS Azure Blob Storage. An Azure storage account contains all of your Azure Storage data objects: blobs, files, queues, tables, and disks. The storage account provides a unique namespace for your Azure Storage data that is accessible from anywhere in the world over HTTP or HTTPS. If you don't already know Azure Blob storage, please read this great documentation <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/storage/blobs/>.

To configure Azure as a backup destination for Storware Backup & Recovery, we just need:

* The storage account name
* One of the account keys
