The Azure HorizonDB extension for Azure Storage enables direct data movement between your Azure HorizonDB cluster and Azure Storage accounts, supporting both import and export operations in multiple file formats. The use of this extension simplifies data workflows by allowing SQL-based access to blob storage, making it easier to integrate PostgreSQL with other Azure services.
It reduces the need for external Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) and Extract, Load, and Transform (ELT) tools by enabling SQL native commands to interact with blob containers.
The extension supports sending requests to Azure Storage service using authorization with Shared Key.
To be able to use the azure_storage extension from any of the databases of an Azure HorizonDB cluster, you need to allow the extension, load its library, and create the extension in the database from where you want to use its functionality.
