In this episode of the Azure Government video series, Steve Michelotti, Principal Program Manager, talks with Sachin Dubey, Software Engineer, on the Azure Government Engineering team, to talk about Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) Gen2 in Azure Government. The discussion starts with an explanation of what ADLS is and many of the advantages of ADLS compared to traditional blob storage. Sachin highlights ADLS Gen2 capabilities such as HDFS endpoints, full backward compatibility, and cross-platform capabilities. Sachin then shows a couple demos of ADLS Gen2 on Azure Government – starting with a basic storage account, and then moving to a more robust example of running cross-platform Hadoop commands. If your government agency is ready to get started using Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 on Azure Government, watch this demo-heavy video to see how easy it is to get started!
