 CrateDB Cloud allows convenient imports directly from S3-compatible storage.

+Azure Container Storage
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Importing from Azure Storage Containers is also supported. In this case, the
+secret consists of a secret name, an Azure Storage Connection string or an
+Azure SAS Token URL.
+
+There is an option to import data from a private Azure Blob Storage container
+using a stored secret. Secret can be added by an admin user at the organization
+level.
+
+You can specify a secret, a container, a table and a path in the form
+`/folder/my_file.parquet` 
+
+As with other imports Parquet, CSV, and JSON files are supported. File size
+limitation for imports is 10 GiB per file.

+
+Importing multiple files
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Importing multiple files, also known as import globbing is supported in any
+s3-complatible blob storage. The steps are the same as if importing from S3,
+i.e. bucket name, path to the file and S3 ID/Secret.
+
+Importing multiple files from Azure Container/Blob Storage is also supported:
+`/folder/*.parquet`
+
+Files to be imported are specified by using the well-known `wildcard`_
+notation, also known as "globbing". In computer programming, `glob`_ patterns
+specify sets of filenames with wildcard characters. The following example would
+import all the files from the single specified day.
