Correct. o copy the data from Server1 to Azure Storage using Azure Data Factory, you should do the following next: 1. From Server1: b. Install a self-hosted integration runtime A self-hosted integration runtime needs to be installed on Server1 to enable secure communication between the on-premises network and Azure Data Factory. This runtime allows Data Factory to access and copy data from the on-premises file server to Azure Storage. 2. From the data factory: a. Create a pipeline In the Azure Data Factory, create a pipeline that specifies the source (on-premises file server) and destination (Azure Storage). The pipeline will use the self-hosted integration runtime to establish a connection to the on-premises file server and transfer the data to Azure Storage.
