I am using the following link to guide me on connecting Tableau to ADLS Gen2 https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/examples_azure_data_lake_gen2.htm
I have got stuck at the first hurdle where the document states
Start Tableau and under Connect, select Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2.
For a complete list of data connections, select More under To a
Server.
I don't have that option with the version of Tableau I just downloaded.
Should I be downloading a different version of Tableau to see the option to select Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2?
You're using Tableau Public (limited connection options), but if you download Tableau Desktop (even on a 14day trial) it will work

I am receiving multiple .trn files on daily basis & I am resorting those file in on-premises sql database. Now How we can migrate those .trn files daily on azure.
Connect on-premises SQL database to Azure data factory using Self hosted IR. A self-hosted integration runtime can run copy activities between a cloud data store and a data store in a private network.
Create pipeline and use copy activity.
Select on-premises SQL database as Source.
Select Azure service of your choice as Sink.
Now use trigger to copy data from on premise to Azure periodically.

What is the best method to sync medical images between my client PCs and my Azure Blob storage through a cloud-based web application? I tried to use MS Azure Blob SDK v18, but it is not that fast. I'm looking for something like dropbox, fast, resumable and efficient parallel uploading.
Solution 1:
AzCopy is a command-line tool for copying data to or from Azure Blob storage, Azure Files, and Azure Table storage, by using simple commands. The commands are designed for optimal performance. Using AzCopy, you can either copy data between a file system and a storage account, or between storage accounts. AzCopy may be used to copy data from local (on-premises) data to a storage account.
And also You can create a scheduled task or cron job that runs an AzCopy command script. The script identifies and uploads new on-premises data to cloud storage at a specific time interval.
Fore more details refer this document
Solution 2:
Azure Data Factory is a fully managed, cloud-based, data-integration ETL service that automates the movement and transformation of data.
By using Azure Data Factory, you can create data-driven workflows to move data between on-premises and cloud data stores. And you can process and transform data with Data Flows. ADF also supports external compute engines for hand-coded transformations by using compute services such as Azure HDInsight, Azure Databricks, and the SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) integration runtime.
Create an Azure Data Factory pipeline to transfer files between an on-premises machine and Azure Blob Storage.

Want to connect ADLS Gen-1 with AzureML Studio.
I try to find out some solution but could not get
Direct method:
Currently, Azure Data Lake Store is not a supported source.
I would suggest you to vote up an idea submitted by another Azure customer.
https://feedback.azure.com/forums/327234-data-lake/suggestions/15008490-adl-store-connector-for-ml-studio
All of the feedback you share in these forums will be monitored and reviewed by the Microsoft engineering teams responsible for building Azure.
By using the Import Data module, you can access data from one of several online data sources while your experiment is running:
• A Web URL using HTTP
• Hadoop using HiveQL
• Azure blob storage
• Azure table
• Azure SQL database or SQL Server on Azure VM
• On-premises SQL Server database
• A data feed provider, OData currently
• Azure Cosmos DB
For more details, refer “Supported data types in Azure ML studio”.
In-direct method:
Azure Data Lake Analytics can also be used to write data out to Azure Blob Store, and so you can use that as an approach to process the data in U-SQL and then stage it for Azure Machine Learning to process it from Blob store. When Azure ML supports Data Lake store, then you can switch that over.
For more details, refer "How to use ADLS as an input data set for Azure ML Studio".
Hope this helps.
When developing for Azure storage accounts, I can run the Microsoft Storage Emulator to locally keep Blobs, Queues, and Tables without having to connect to Azure online.
Is there something equivalent for the Azure Data Lake Store? It would be nice to develop locally for a while without having to connect to Azure online.
Have you tried Visual Studio with the Azure Data Lake Tools plug-in?
As pointed out by David, you can develop Azure Data Lake Analytics (ADLA) projects locally without needing connectivity to Azure for the ADLA account or the associated Azure Data Lake Store (ADLS) account. Is there some other application you would like to use with ADLS?
Thanks,

Same problem here.
AFAIK the Storage Emulator is not yet able to really handle Data Lake (ADSL Gen2) Requests.
This Uri works (but looks for a file, not a dir):
http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1/packages-container/Dir/SubDir?sv=2020-04-08&se=2022-10-13T14%3A43%3A39Z&sr=b&sp=rcwl&sig=d2SxwYCkJGyx%2BHac9vntYQZOTt5QVs1bKgKb4%2FgcQ9k%3D
This one doesn't:
Error: Status: 403 (Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of the Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature.)
ErrorCode: AuthorizationFailure
http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1/packages-container/Dir/SubDir?sv=2020-04-08&se=2022-10-13T14%3A43%3A39Z&sr=d&sp=rcwl&sdd=2&sig=KU%2Fcu6W0Nsv8CucMgusubo8RbXWabFO8nDMkFxU1tTw%3D
The difference is that the second one uses the resource 'sr=d' (directory) while the first uses 'sr=b' (blob).
Both items are working on real Azure Storage (with ADSL Gen2).
The request is already tracked here: https://github.com/Azure/Azurite/issues/553
Tested on VS 2022 17.3.6 using Server: Azurite-Blob/3.18.0
Current story:
Moving overall BI solution fully to Azure cloud services. Building a new Azure DW and loading data from an Azure DB. Currently, Azure DW doesn't support linked servers and/or the elastic query (this is only supported in Azure DB). Due to price, we can not use data factory or an instance of SSIS. We can't use bcp as we don't have a local directory to hold the file in between loads.
Is it possible to use Azure PowerShell with sqlcmd to write results of a query directly to Azure Storage, without having to write to a file on a local directory in between?
Are there other options that aren't mentioned above?
Thank you for any input.
The current Azure Storage PowerShell (Set-AzureStorageBlobContent) only support upload blob from local file.
Azure Storage Client Library (https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-net) support to upload blob from stream, can you try to develop your own application with the Azure Storage Client Library?
If your data is big, you can also try https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-net-data-movement/, it has better performance in upload big blob.
