Is there any way to directly upload a azure blob to an sftp server location?

Question

I do have a requirement. Files stored in my azure storage needs to be transferred to SFTP server directly in C#. Now I am getting the stream of the blob first then writting the stream to SFTP location which is causing some memory issues.

Answer 1

To transfer an Azure blob via Rebex SFTP client to an SFTP server without the need to keep data of the whole blob in memory, try this approach:

// get blob container client
var container = new BlobContainerClient(connectionString, "...");
container.CreateIfNotExists(PublicAccessType.Blob);

// establish Rebex SFTP session
var sftp = new Sftp();
sftp.Connect(...);
sftp.Login(...)

// get block client
var blobClient = container.GetBlobClient("myfile.zip");

// transfer data from the blob to a file on an SFTP server
using (var uploadStream = sftp.GetUploadStream("myfile.zip"))
{
    blobClient.DownloadTo(uploadStream);
}
