No ACL shares

For shares that don't have any need for access control lists, and work with full control, you can use Azure Storage File accounts and connect the shares to the server directly via SMB. From there, the users can connect to the file share:

But there is a very important caveat. You need to take latency under consideration. Within an Azure data center, latency is no issue, but when you want to mount an Azure fileshare on a remote server, there could be a very bad user experience or failure during transfer because of high latency.
