1414

General-purpose v2 storage accounts support the latest Azure Storage features and incorporate all of the functionality of General-purpose v1 and Blob storage accounts. General-purpose v2 accounts are recommended for most storage scenarios. General-purpose v2 accounts deliver the lowest per-gigabyte capacity prices for Azure Storage, as well as industry-competitive transaction prices. General-pupose v2 accounts support default account access tiers of hot or cool and blob level tiering between hot, cool, or archive.

General-purpose v2 accounts support all Azure storage services and data objects, but access tiers are available only apply to block blobs within Blob storage. When you upgrade to a General-purpose v2 storage account, you can specify a default account access tier of hot or cool, which indicates the default tier your blob data will be uploaded as if the individual blob access tier parameter is not specified.

Access tiers enable you to choose the most cost-effective storage based on your anticipated usage patterns. Block blobs can be stored in a Hot, Cool, or Archive tier. For more information on access tiers, see [Azure Blob storage: Hot, Cool, and Archive storage tiers](../blobs/storage-blob-storage-tiers.md).

By default, a new storage account is created in the hot access tier, and a General-purpose v1 storage account can be upgraded to either the hot or cool account tier. If an account access tier is not specified on upgrade, it will be upgraded to hot by default. If you are exploring which access tier to use for your upgrade, consider your current data usage scenario. There are two typical user scenarios for migrating to a General-purpose v2 account:

* You have decided to use a General-purpose v2 storage account or already have one and want to evaluate whether you should use the Hot or Cool storage access tier for blob data.
