Hi everyone, in this post, I will show you how to enable blob versioning on your Azure storage account using PowerShell and Azure CLI. When blob versioning is enabled, you can restore a previous version of a blob to recover data if modified or deleted by mistake.

In this post, I want to show you how to configure terraform to use an Azure storage account to store and protect your tfstate file. To manage the infrastructure and configuration, Terraform writes the status of resources to a tfstate file.

One security recommendation Microsoft established in Azure Security Center is to disable public access to storage accounts. In this post, I will show you how you can configure your storage account to prevent public access to an Azure storage account using PowerShell and the Azure CLI.

Hi, Jorge is back. In this post, I want to show you how to configure Storage Analytics metrics using PowerShell and Azure CLI. Azure Storage Analytics: performs logging and provides metrics data for a storage account.
