Backups to Microsoft Azure

Hi, Forgive me if I have posted in the wrong thread. Does anyone know of any custom scripts that will allow me to push account backups to Micorsoft Windows Azure Blob Storage? (much like Amazon S3). Would it be possible for me to customise the Amazon S3 scripts to use Windows Azure instead? If so, where is the script kept? Jason

  Hello :) You would have to create a custom backup destination using the instructions here: How to create a custom destination Note that an existing feature request is open for this here: [url=http://features.cpanel.net/responses/backup-to-azure]Backup to Azure | cPanel Feature Requests Feel free to vote and add your input to this feature request. Thank you.

  Thanks for your reply. Where is the Amazon script located in a CPanel installation? I should be able to change it, I suspect, with minimum fuss to work with Azure storage.

  You can find an example custom backup destination script here: /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/custom_backup_destination.pl.skeleton
  While it's not exactly optimal for using as a template, if you want to get a better understanding of the Amazon S3 implementation, these files might help: /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/perl/514/lib64/perl5/cpanel_lib/Amazon/S3.pm /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/perl/514/lib64/perl5/cpanel_lib/Amazon/S3/Bucket.pm /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/Transport/Files/AmazonS3.pm
  Thank you.
