Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer:

Azure containers are the backbone of the virtual disks platform for Azure IaaS. Both Azure OS and data disks are implemented as virtual disks where data is durably persisted in the Azure Storage platform and then delivered to the virtual machines for maximum performance. Azure Disks are persisted in Hyper-V VHD format and stored as a page blob in Azure Storage.

Unmanaged disks are VHD files that are stored as page blobs in Azure storage accounts. The page blobs created by tenants are referred to as VM disks and are stored in containers in the storage accounts.

Answer Container service is correct. To store the unmanaged data disks of an Azure virtual machine, one should use Azure Blob Storage within the Containers service. Azure Blob Storage within the Containers service is designed for storing large amounts of unstructured data, such as virtual hard disks (VHDs) used by Azure virtual machines.

Unmanaged disks are VHD files that are stored as page blobs in storage containers in Azure Stack storage accounts. The page blobs created by tenants are referred to as VM disks and are stored in containers in the storage accounts. We recommend you use unmanaged disks only for VMs that need to be compatible with third-party tools, which only support Azure unmanaged disks.
