With the cloud connector in BE 2015 FP2 is it possible to backup directly to Azure without using the Steelstore Appliance like you can with Amazon?

It might work, but it would not be supported as Azure isn't listed on the HCL in the S3 Connector section.

Even with Amazon, you cannot backup directly to the cloud.  You can only duplicate your backups to the cloud.

Direct backups to cloud are possible in addition to duplicates.

We have edited the original comment as both support staff and any public documentation did not have all the information regarding this condition. Apologies for any confusion.
