Azure Blob Storage Cold Tier was [generally available](https://aka.ms/azure-cold-tier-storage-ga) since Aug 10th, 2023\. It is a new online access tier that is the most cost-effective Azure Blob offering for storing infrequently accessed data with long-term retention requirements, while providing instant access. [Change feed](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-change-feed) provides transaction logs of all the changes that occur to the blobs and the blob metadata in the storage account. Now it captures the changes of blobs in cold tier. [Object replication](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/object-replication-overview) asynchronously copies block blobs between a source storage account and a destination account. Now you can asynchronously copy your block blobs in cold tier on the source storage account to a destination account. Refer to the [documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/access-tiers-overview) for additional details. * Hot/Cool/Cold Blob Storage Tiers * Storage Accounts * Azure Blob Storage * Features * [ Storage Accounts](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/storage/)
