Azure Storage Account Reference

Important This service is deprecated and will be deleted in the next minor release. We strongly recommend not creating any new instances with this service. We also recommend deleting or moving existing instances to user-provided instances, as these instances will be out of the control of CSB once the offering is no longer available in the CSB catalog.
