Throttle, or better, give low priority to Azure blob storage upload
I'm using
BlobContainerClient.UploadBlobAsync to push up half a terabyte of archive data from a live server. I want don't want it to disrupt our live applications. I might have to do this more than once. Can someone tell me how I can give low priority to this traffic as it slurps it up over the next few days?19 Replies

I can't. I have to do programmatic things to the data as it uploads.

I have to reinterpret the data from files as it uploads.
And I can't save that to another directory because we're out of space.
Theoretically I could route this traffic through a Linux box, use some TBF rules to limit just that traffic, so I don't know why I wouldn't be able to do that anyways. Microsoft must have devised something that gives priority to IIS, but it probably has the same as Azure blob storage priority or maybe even less because these operations are usually critical

Hmm. The files are < 25mb. Maybe I just add a sleep 1000

Yeah, but IIS is going to be mostly upload, too.
k. I think I'll just do that.
