About:
AzCopy is a command-line utility designed for high-performance data transfer to and from Azure Storage. It offers optimized copy operations for blobs, files, and tables, supporting features like SAS token authentication and recursive directory copying. The tool is essential for managing large-scale data migrations and automated storage tasks.
Key Features:
  • High-speed parallel data transfers
  • Support for Azure Blob, Files, and Table storage
  • SAS token and AAD authentication support
  • Cross-platform availability (Windows, Linux, macOS)
Use Cases:
  • Migrating large datasets to Azure Blob Storage
  • Automating backups and data synchronization
  • Copying virtual machine disks between storage accounts
Alternatives:
  • rclone – Multi-protocol cloud sync tool, more configurable but less Azure-optimized
  • Azure CLI – General purpose management tool, slower for bulk data transfer
