# Quickstart: Integrate an Azure storage account with Azure CDN
22
+
22
23
In this quickstart, you enable [Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN)](cdn-overview.md) to cache content from Azure storage. Azure CDN offers developers a global solution for delivering high-bandwidth content. It can cache blobs and static content of compute instances at physical nodes in the United States, Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America.
Log in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com) with your Azure account.

## Enable Azure CDN for the storage account
83
58
84
-
You can enable Azure CDN for your storage account directly from your storage account. If you want to specify advanced configuration settings for your CDN endpoint, such as [large file download optimization](cdn-optimization-overview.md#large-file-download), you can instead use the [Azure CDN extension](cdn-create-new-endpoint.md) to create a CDN profile and endpoint.
59
+
1. On the page for your storage account, select **Blob service** > **Azure CDN** from the left menu. The **Azure CDN** page appears.
85
60
86
-
1. Select a storageaccount from the dashboard, then select **Azure CDN** from the left pane. If the **Azure CDN** button is not immediately visible, you can enter CDN in the **Search** box of the left pane to find it.
2. Create a new endpoint by entering the required information specified in the following table:
63
+
1. In the **New endpoint** section, enter the following information:

64
94
65
| Setting | Value |
95
66
| -------- | ----- |
96
-
|**CDN profile**| Select **Create new** and enter your profile name, for example, *my-cdn-profile-123*. This name must be globally unique. |
97
-
|**Pricing tier**| Select **Standard Verizon**from the drop-down list. |
98
-
| **CDN endpoint name** | Enter your endpoint hostname, i.e. *my-endpoint-123*. This name must be globally unique. This name is used to access your cached resources at the domain _<endpointname>_.azureedge.net. |
67
+
|**CDN profile**| Select **Create new** and enter your profile name, for example, *cdn-profile-123*. A profile is a collection of endpoints.|
68
+
|**Pricing tier**| Select one of the **Standard**options, such as **Standard Microsoft**. |
69
+
| **CDN endpoint name** | Enter your endpoint hostname, i.e. *cdn-endpoint-123*. This name must be globally unique across Azure because it's to access your cached resources at the URL _<endpoint-name>_.azureedge.net. |
99
70
| **Origin hostname** | By default, a new CDN endpoint uses the hostname of your storage account as the origin server. |
100
71

## Enable additional CDN features
107
-
From the storage account **Azure CDN** page, select the CDN endpoint from the list to open the CDN endpoint configuration page. From this page, you can enable additional CDN features for your delivery, such as [compression](cdn-improve-performance.md), [query string caching](cdn-query-string.md), and [geo filtering](cdn-restrict-access-by-country.md).

85
+
111
86
## Enable SAS
87
+
112
88
If you want to grant limited access to private storage containers, you can use the Shared Access Signature (SAS) feature of your Azure storage account. A SAS is a URI that grants restricted access rights to your Azure Storage resources without exposing your account key. For more information, see [Using Azure CDN with SAS](cdn-sas-storage-support.md).
113
89
114
90
## Access CDN content
91
+
115
92
To access cached content on the CDN, use the CDN URL provided in the portal. The address for a cached blob has the following format:
> After you enable Azure CDN access to a storage account, all publicly available objects are eligible for CDN POP caching. If you modify an object that's currently cached in the CDN, the new content will not be available via Azure CDN until Azure CDN refreshes its content after the time-to-live period for the cached content expires.
121
98
122
99
## Remove content from Azure CDN
100
+
123
101
If you no longer want to cache an object in Azure CDN, you can take one of the following steps:
124
102
125
-
* Make the container private instead of public. For more information, see [Manage anonymous read access to containers and blobs](../storage/blobs/storage-manage-access-to-resources.md).
126
-
* Disable or delete the CDN endpoint by using the Azure portal.
127
-
* Modify your hosted service to no longer respond to requests for the object.
103
+
- Make the container private instead of public. For more information, see [Manage anonymous read access to containers and blobs](../storage/blobs/storage-manage-access-to-resources.md).
104
+
- Disable or delete the CDN endpoint by using the Azure portal.
105
+
- Modify your hosted service to no longer respond to requests for the object.
128
106
129
107
An object that's already cached in Azure CDN remains cached until the time-to-live period for the object expires or until the endpoint is [purged](cdn-purge-endpoint.md). When the time-to-live period expires, Azure CDN determines whether the CDN endpoint is still valid and the object is still anonymously accessible. If they are not, the object will no longer be cached.
130
108
131
109
## Clean up resources
110
+
132
111
In the preceding steps, you created a CDN profile and an endpoint in a resource group. Save these resources if you want to go to [Next steps](#next-steps) and learn how to add a custom domain to your endpoint. However, if you don't expect to use these resources in the future, you can delete them by deleting the resource group, thus avoiding additional charges:
133
112
134
-
1. From the left-hand menu in the Azure portal, select **Resource groups** and then select **my-resource-group-123**.
113
+
1. From the left-hand menu in the Azure portal, select **Resource groups** and then select *CDNQuickstart-rg**.
135
114
136
-
2. On the **Resource group** page, select **Delete resource group**, enter *my-resource-group-123* in the text box, then select **Delete**.
115
+
2. On the **Resource group** page, select **Delete resource group**, enter *CDNQuickstart-rg* in the text box, then select **Delete**.
137
116
138
117
This action will delete the resource group, profile, and endpoint that you created in this quickstart.
139
118
140
119
3. To delete your storage account, select it from the dashboard, then select **Delete** from the top menu.
