Archive Log Files to Azure Blob Storage

Logs are essential for identifying and troubleshooting short-term problems but are less effective at identifying long-term trends. Older entries may get overwritten, deleted, or lost. Archiving log files allows you to identify patterns over a longer period of time than rolling log files.

Hyper-Q Log File Uploader lets you archive Hyper-Q log files to Azure Blob storage. Logs stored in Azure Blob storage remain indefinitely or until you delete them. You can also define an access policy within Azure storage that limits access to the logs to certain users.

Prerequisites for Hyper-Q Log File Uploader Ensure that your Microsoft Azure environment meets the following requirements.
