    So, i found a solution for copy data backups to Azure blob storage. Blob storage has lowest costs than other storages. I use azcopy utility (Authorize access to blobs with AzCopy & Azure Active Directory | Microsoft Docs). system-wide managed identity for VM.

    That's the better option. You could mount blob storage via an external integration (i.e. NetAPP) but it's not a good idea.  For performance and reliability reasons you should let QRadar backup locally and then copy the completed backup to object storage later, just as you have done.

    Azcopy (CLI based) is the best and free tool for such a situation but watches out it is very quick to transfer and this causes a bandwidth-consuming and if anyone working at the same time, the network will be very slow for him. On the other hand, there are many tools that can backup to Azure blob easily and quickly with the option to limit the transfer speed like Goodsync, Gs Richcopy 360, Syncback ... etc. Also, all are simple and GUI-based, search all
