Veeam Backup&Replication supports different types of storage accounts.
| Storage account type | Supported services | Supported performance tiers | Supported access tiers |
| General-purpose V2 | Blob (block blobs only) | Standard | Cool: for infrequently accessed data. Hot: for frequently accessed data. Archive: for rarely accessed data. It can be set only on the blob level and supported in Archive Tier object storage systems. For Azure Blob storage, Veeam Backup & Replication will use the access tier that you specified at the Container step of the New Object Storage wizard. For Azure Archive storage, Veeam Backup & Replication will use the access tier specified at the Access Tier step of the New Object Storage wizard. |
