I am currently looking at Windows Azure blobs as an option for backing up archive data. I want to be able to upload files from an external windows machine via the internet but I don't know enough about Windows Azure storage to make a decision. Some of the questions I have are
- How do I upload the files. Is there a client application, can I use robocopy?
- Would it be fast enough? i.e. Could I download or upload 1TB of data in a week?
- Is it secure?
Hopefully someone smarter than me can help me :-)
