 Azure Blob Storage provides storage to build powerful cloud-native and mobile apps. It Optimizes costs with tiered storage for your long-term data, and flexibly scale up for high-performance computing and machine learning workloads. The following is an overview about this Microsoft technology.   Overview on what is Azure Blob storage Azure Blob storage is Microsoft's object storage solution for the cloud. Blob storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data.

  Goal Retrieve from the Apache logs the time that the server processes a request. Problem To tracking through DataDog or other tool those slow requests performed by our web server it’s necessary to have in each Apache’s request log the following information: How long Apache took to process the request Solution Add to LogFormat configuration the directive %D to measure in microseconds the time each request is processed. If each virtual has already defined custom LogFormat it should be updated also. Because the intention is to parse the log entry my suggestion is to add a prefix to the log format. Then the directive would be prefixed for example by prefix->%D and the log will hold for example prefix->523484, Where: prefix->: A custom value defined by developer to be used by the parser. 523484: Value in microseconds of the request processing. The prefix must be defined in
