Hi there. Back to 9/24/2018 you guys announced "Bring your own storage to App Service" https://azure.github.io/AppService/2018/09/24/Announcing-Bring-your-own-Storage-to-App-Service.html.
So it has been for 2 years in preview and the following article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/containers/how-to-serve-content-from-azure-storage makes it very clear that the feature is not intended for production environment.
Do you have any plans to make it GA?
Hi @Aouslender, Alexey ,
I believe there might be plans to make it GA but I will double-check internally with the product team and get back to you.
Thanks,
Grace

Additionally will this be available for an App Service on Windows not running in a container. I've been using the limited locally attached storage but need to upgrade to more space. Having a simple way to connect Azure Files seems like a no brainer.
Hi @Aouslender, Alexey ,
I have confirmed with the product group that there are plans to make Azure Storage in App Service on Linux GA but we do not have an ETA to share at the moment.
Thanks,
Grace
Hi @Grmacjon-MSFT thanks for the answer, the fact the feature is in preview really impeds us from using it on production. Considering the fact that it was in preview for two years maybe it is possible to get some information regarding the ETA. I mean in case there is a real plan to release it to GA we can start using it, but if there is no clear time frame how Microsoft expects us to use on production envirnment?
Thanks a lot for your time.
Hi @Aouslender, Alexey , Yes the hope is to have it GA before the end of this year. However, this is an estimate, not a promise. You can periodically check the Azure App Service blog for future updates.
Thanks,
Grace

Hi,
On our side I confirm this is a feature we really plan to rely on at the beginning of 2021
I just noticed that the corresponding docs were just unpublished ! (i.e : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/containers/how-to-serve-content-from-azure-storage ) Do you know why ?
In the eventuality this is delayed, which architecture / technical resource could we use to achieve the same functionnality ?
=> mounting and accessing an Azure (File) storage from within an app
