File Share service in Azure Storage 🗃️

An Azure file share is a convenient place for cloud applications to write their logs, metrics, and crash dumps. Logs can be written by the application instances via the File REST API, and developers can access them by mounting the file share on their local machine.

The advantage of File Share is everyone can access the shared location.
