Good morning community.
I currently have a VM1 with a soft, and another VM2 with 2 Microsoft SQL server databases.
This VM1 hosts the information in the databases of VM2.
What I need is to make a daily backup of these 2 databases and store it in some blob storage within Azure.

    That is what SQL maintenance plans are designed to do as discussed here. There is a section that talks about how to automate your database backups. From there you need only move them to Azure storage which you could do as part of the maintenance plans or via a separate scheduled task, depending upon your needs.
