We have data in on-prem NetApp and TSM with over 42 TB of data. What is the easiest way to backup to Azure ?

which Resource in Azure should we use for this backup ?

We have express route connection between Azure and on-prem.

How much time will it take to migrate/backup these data from on-prem to Azure and what approaches are available in Azure for this ?

Please help

    @MS Techie You could certainly migrate from NetApp to Azure Blob storage. Whether you want to use something like DataBox Disk or AzCopy depends on the available bandwidth. This page has a good graphic explaining the suggested solutions based on size and bandwidth, timing will depend on these factors. I also recommend checking the Migration overview page.

    Hope this helps! Let me know if you have questions or need further assistance.
