Because SqlPackage operates with the filesystem, you can use the storage feature that best suits your needs for both performance (the speed of import or export operations), and cost.

The .BACPAC file can be stored in [Azure Blobs](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blobs-overview), or [Azure Files](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/files/storage-files-introduction). Whether to use Azure Blobs or Azure Files depends on your specific business requirements. Azure Blobs will cost less than a premium Azure file share, but will take a longer time for the import or export operation to complete.
