Azure lifecycle policy for containers with dynamic directory names and blobs inside them - azure-blob-storage

I want to configure an azure lifecycle policy to containers such that the blobs are moved to cool tier after some specific time, but the blobs are inside dynamically created directory inside container, e.g
mycontainer/test-123/blob1.pdf;
mycontainer/test-98765/blob2.pdf;
mycontainer/test-qw9876/blob3.pdf
where "mycontainer/test-" remains same for all the blobs, but file names are dynamic, we need to apply the policy for the all blobs under the container "mycontainer/test-*".
Note: * values will be dynamically generated.

I tried to add the blobs in the container and move to cool tiers I'm getting result successfully without any dynamical creation
In your storage account -> use storage browser -> under blob container -> create container -> upload files directly in the container
After configuring an azure lifecycle policy to containers moving blobs to cool tier try to remove the character and update the rule
Here, blobs are moved to cool tier without any changes even after specific time

Power Automate, Delete file from blob storage

Is there a way or a template that can be used within Power Automate that will remove a file from an azure blob container.
I have a flow that creates a file in SharePoint once it has been added to Blob storage container but I want to remove the file then from the container after it is created in SharePoint
You can use Delete blob(V2) action right after the SharePoint's Create file step and mention path to the blob from the trigger action. Below is the flow of my logic app.

How to create azure data factory pipeline on local machine for dev debug?

I create service which uses few ADF pipelines, which will be responsible for processing of large amount of big files.
The main purpose is not to create azure services like database, azure storage account and pipelines on local developer account with 50Euro credit. The biggest drawback of such solution is size of processed file. Such big files could burn credit and blue CK such account.
Structure of a project looks like:
web-ui - API server - azure data factory with pipelines (unit used for processing and calculation files). In order to develop and debug such project everything should be configurable on local machine. Data factory with pipelines will use database information in order to process and create calculations on files
I looked for different approaches to deploy such projects with ADF pipelines, but there is no general solution for such structure. Is it possible to simulate and create local instance of pipeline on developer's machine?

Limited options for Azure Storage Lifecycle Management?

I'm looking to setup a Lifecycle Management rule in Azure Storage account to move blobs to an Archive storage account after X days.
When I go to create the rule, the only option is to Delete the blob:
In these docs, I see options like Move to cool storage, etc.:
How do I enable these options?
Setup:
ADLS Gen 2
Hierarchical Namespaces enabled
Standard performance / Hot access tier
RA-GRS replication
Aha! Selecting Append Blobs checkbox disables all options other than Delete the blob.
Append Blobs are not allowed to be moved to Cold / Archived storage using the current Lifecycle Management blade.

How to delete a blob after a duration?

Is it possible to delete a blob using any settings in the Azure portal or via code in c#?
Let's say, I am creating log files and uploading it to a blob container. I would like to delete all the log files which are older than a week time.
Please see the Tasks option under Automation section.
you probably want to look into azure blob storage lifecycle management:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/azure-blob-storage-lifecycle-management-public-preview/
#savagepanda is right. Azure Blob Storage has support for lifecycle management.
Manage the Azure Blob storage lifecycle
Azure Blob storage lifecycle management offers a rich, rule-based
policy for GPv2 and Blob storage accounts. Use the policy to
transition your data to the appropriate access tiers or expire at the
end of the data's lifecycle.
The lifecycle management policy lets you:
Transition blobs to a cooler storage tier (hot to cool, hot to
archive, or cool to archive) to optimize for performance and cost
Delete blobs at the end of their lifecycles Define rules to be run
once per day at the storage account level Apply rules to containers or
a subset of blobs (using prefixes as filters)

Store, fetch and map images from amazon webservice in MVC Dotnet Application

I'm new to Amazon webservice. I created a instance in AWS EC2 to publish my website.Now I have an requirement.
I have resources where each resource must be able to choose the images(as profile picture)during runtime. I want to fetch the images from amazon storage and map in the already developed mvc.net application. I had this idea of storing the images in amazonS3(via budget) but I need to know how to fetch them during run time which enables resources to choose their profile picture from the uploaded images in bucket.
Please letme know if there is anyother way to store and fetch profile pictures using amazon to my mvcdotnet application?
Store the Original Image file in S3 Standard option.Store the reproducible images like thumbs etc in the S3 Reduced Redundancy option (RRS) to save costs. Store the Meta data about images including the S3 URL mapping in Amazon RDS and query them whenever needed from EC2.
