Backup to Azure
Open Discussion
It's awesome that cPanel added "backup to S3".
But please add "backup to Azure" as well. The functionality from a client perspective is very similar - upload a blob - and there are high quality python, etc. SDKs.
Presently I backup to Azure blob storage via a custom script - it'd be great if that functionality could be built directly into cPanel/WHM.
I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.
Please note that the current design of the backup system permits anyone at all to write their own custom backup destination modules. Therefore this is not something that would *require* the involvement of cPanel development.
That said, cPanel would definitely consider stepping in to writing and including this module on our own if there is significant demand for it. Please encourage other Azure users to show their support accordingly via voting and commenting on this feature.

Having the ability to directly write backups to an Azure Blob would be a great idea! I feel all the large storage providers should be included within cPanel Backup. You've got Google Drive, Amazon S3 and S3 compatible storage..... what about Microsoft?
