WALNUT CREEK, Calif., June 22, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Retrospect™, a StorCentric company, today announced the general availability of Microsoft Azure Blob Storage support for Retrospect Backup and Retrospect Virtual.

With deep Azure integration, Retrospect Backup continues to provide the industry's most flexible backup solution with simple, safe, and secure backups.
Microsoft Azure has grown dramatically recently, and with its addition to the wide range of cloud storage providers that Retrospect supports, customers can select the best cloud based on their unique business.
