Whether you're running a dry test before deployment or optimizing the upload process for network conditions, this plugin covers all the bases to ensure your assets reach the Azure CDN reliably.

Features

• Dry Run Capability: Allows you to simulate a deployment, revealing all changes without making any actual modifications to the blob storage.
• Content Gzip Compression: Automatically gzips content before upload, ensuring only the smallest file version is stored, which boosts loading times.
• Recursive File Management: Effortlessly removes files in a specified path within Azure Blob Storage to keep your storage clean.
• Controlled Concurrent Uploads: Adjusts the number of simultaneous uploads to optimize bandwidth and avoid network congestion.
• Flexible Configuration Parameters: Customize your deployment with a range of options, including service options, container settings, and metadata for each file.
• Testing Configuration: A test run feature allows for connectivity checks and deployment logs without making changes to the actual blob storage.
• Automatic Blob Management: Offers flexibility in automatically deleting existing blobs during deployment, ensuring your storage is always up-to-date without manual clean-up.
