How to set up the storage
Elqano is using an Azure Storage account to store the processing and shared documents.
It will contains two blob containers:
- The document collection to temporary store indexed documents and shared ones.
- The report collection to store generated statistics reports
To configure it easily, we are providing a pre-configured template.
By default it will create a storage account with the following properties:
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Performance | Standard |
| Account kind | StorageV2 |
| Replication | Read-Access geo-redundant stoage (RA-GRS) |
| Access tier | Hot |
| Containers Public Access | Private |
Edit the template if you need specific setings. You will be able to configure more propeties on the Azure storage account service later.
