Azure Blob Storage Lifecycle Management (LCM) helps you automate the transition of objects to lower-cost access tiers, or to delete objects at the end of their lifecycle to reduce storage costs. If a policy is active, Lifecycle Management periodically processes the objects in a storage account that match the filter set and rules specified in the lifecycle policy. The time required for a policy to complete processing a storage account depends on many factors. Factors like the number of objects to be evaluated and operated on, customer workloads on the account, availability of storage resources and more. In some cases, it can take multiple days to complete processing all the objects in the storage account. And a new LCM run begins only after the ongoing run completes. LCM is constantly optimizing for speed of execution while keeping these factors in mind.
