I've set up a Windows Server 2012 R2 Azure virtual machine with SQL Server Web Edition. I've set up a recovery services vault used to fully backup the Virtual Machine once a week, to be able to restore the installed software. In SQL Server Management Studio, I've set up a Maintenance Plan that backs up the DB to a specific local folder in the virtual machine.
Now, I would like to back up this local folder to another location / storage in Azure, being able to restore this folder in case of need.
What's the best way to backup a single folder on a daily basis? Should I follow this guide to "Back up a Windows Server or client to Azure using the Resource Manager deployment model"? Does the "Vault credential file and backup agent" works on a server in Azure too? Are there any suggestions to perform the described plan?
Thank you very much!
Fabio
