Description

Mounting Azure Storage as a local share for a web app deployed on App Service for Linux is now generally available. This means you can now:

  • Configure persistent storage for your App Service apps, and manage the storage separately.
  • Make static content like video and images readily available for your App Service apps.
  • Write application log files or archive older application logs to Azure File shares.
  • Share content across multiple apps or with other Azure services.

This capability enables mounting Azure Storage as a network share in a built-in Linux container or a custom Linux container deployed to App Service for Linux.
