This post will offer some insights on how to index popular document formats like Word, PDF, and JPG’s when using the Azure Search offering.

After seeing how many other applications are dealing with Azure Blob storage, I’ve discovered a couple of standard practices when it comes to the creation of a storage hierarchy, along with some performance and security considerations.
