Is there a Azure backup service for backing up disks, storage accounts, or file folders in sync (such as one drive, drive, dropbox)? so when the file is gone we can restore it to the last update state. not based on a daily / weekly schedule

    @RnD0102 Thanks for reaching out to us!

    Currently Azure/Azure Backup doesn't offer all in one solution to backup files, disks, storage account and other cloud files shares to Azure. There was a similar ask - https://feedback.azure.com/forums/217298-storage/suggestions/5886483-storage-sync-with-dropbox which was declined by Azure storage team. If you have any feedback or a specific scenario you can reach out to Azure storage team through an email provided in the feedback link.

    For backing up files/folders and disks you can leverage Azure MARS agent

    For storage account backup you can use - Blob storage backup or AzCopy - AzCopy today can copy an account as fast as 50Gbps thanks to the new copy APIs we have released recently. All AzCopy does is to orchestrate the copy - Storage service copies data directly from a given source URL, hence eliminating a bottleneck.

    Feel free to write back if you have any follow up questions.

    No it's not supported, it only can handle Azure services like VM, Disks, Storages.
