> The Azure SDK for Azure Blob Storage supports the "Put Blob from URL" and "Copy from URL" operations which allow server-to-server copying of blobs from one storage account to another.
> This is perhaps antithetical to data processing in NiFi (since the implication is that the client does not actually see any of the data being transferred), but it is a very relevant data operation.
> Today, to accomplish the same from NiFi you would need to call out to for example [azcopy|https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-ref-azcopy] which means you lose out on credentials management etc.
> Practically speaking, you would provide two credentials, one for the source and another for the destination and the would-be processor would then engage in the server-to-server copying operation.
