Applying access tiers to Blob storage

Cipher Coffee needs to store different kinds of business data in Azure Blob Storage. Some files, like daily order receipts, need to be accessed often. Other files, such as last year's sales records, can be stored more cost-effectively. In this exercise, you will upload files to your blob container and assign each one to the correct access tier: Hot, Cool, or Archive.
