Managed Service Providers (MSPs)
If you are an MSP, you can offer your tenants the option to bring their own Azure storage. Tenants who bring their own storage need their Azure storage account details, such as the storage account name, access key ID, and container name. For the best performance and to avoid paying Azure egress charges, tenants must select the storage region that matches the location of their storage when they configure Commvault Cloud. If your tenant has Azure storage in a region that is not available in Commvault Cloud, contact Commvault Customer Support.
