Azure Blob Storage

Cost-optimized, cloud-oriented object storage for unstructured data

Azure Blob Storage is Microsoft’s cloud-oriented object storage solution, optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data (text, binaries, etc.). Features include cost-optimized tiered storage, and integration with Microsoft’s Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2.

How to get data flowing

This is a built-in integration through the Cribl Stream Azure Blob Storage Source and Destination.

Azure Blob Storage as Source and Stream as a destination

  • Configure Azure Event Grid to send queue notifications when new blobs are added to a storage account.

  • Configure Stream to listen for Blob Storage data via Sources > Azure Blob Storage.

  • Specify the queue, connection string, Event Breaker settings, and optional parameters.

  • Stream will start fetching data as it becomes available.

Azure Blob Storage as Destination and LogStream as a source

  • Configure LogStream to send data to Azure Event Hubs via Destinations > Azure Blob Storage.

  • Specify the Azure container name, blob prefix, staging location, partitioning expression, backpressure behavior, and optional parameters.
