You need to copy a large amount of data between Azure Storage accounts and require a tool that can be scripted for automation and offers optimized performance for data transfer. Which tool should you choose?
AzCopy
Azure File Sync
Azure Storage Explorer
Azure Data Factory
AzCopy is a command-line utility engineered for high-throughput transfers to, from, and between Azure Storage accounts. Because it can be invoked from scripts or automation pipelines, it is ideal for large, repeatable data-copy jobs.
Azure Storage Explorer provides a user-friendly graphical interface that excels at manual, small-scale management tasks but lacks the performance tuning and non-interactive automation features of AzCopy.
Azure Data Factory is capable of copying data between storage accounts through its Copy activity, yet its primary purpose is to orchestrate end-to-end data integration workflows rather than serve as a lightweight bulk-copy tool.
Azure File Sync is designed to synchronize on-premises Windows Server shares with Azure Files, not to transfer data between Azure Storage accounts.
