Microsoft today mentioned on their official blog that Azure Data Factory is enabling faster data movement. Microsoft is doing this by increasing the throughput of the data movement performed through Azure Data Factory. Below is the limit of copy capability in Azure Data Factory.
- Ingest 1 TB data into Azure Blob Storage from on-premises File System and Azure Blob Storage in about three hours (i.e. @ 100 MBps)
- Ingest 1 TB data into Azure Data Lake Store from on-premises File System and Azure Blob Storage in about three hours (i.e. @ 100 MBps)
- Ingest 1 TB data into Azure SQL Data Warehouse from Azure Blob Storage in about three hours (i.e. @ 100 MBps)
Microsoft will continue to surface ways to make data movement to, within and out of Azure faster. Read more about it here.
