Minio Gateway adds Amazon S3 compatibility to Microsoft Azure Blob Storage.

```
docker run -p 9000:9000 --name azure-s3 \
-e "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=azureaccountname" \
-e "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=azureaccountkey" \
minio/minio gateway azure
```

## Test using Minio Client `mc`
`mc` provides a modern alternative to UNIX commands such as ls, cat, cp, mirror, diff etc. It supports filesystems and Amazon S3 compatible cloud storage services.
### Configure `mc`
```
mc config host add myazure http://gateway-ip:9000 azureaccountname azureaccountkey
```
### List containers on Microsoft Azure
```
mc ls myazure
[2017-02-22 01:50:43 PST] 0B ferenginar/
[2017-02-26 21:43:51 PST] 0B my-container/
[2017-02-26 22:10:11 PST] 0B test-container1/
```
### Known limitations
Gateway inherits the following Azure limitations:
- Only read-only bucket policy supported at bucket level, all other variations will return API Notimplemented error.
- Bucket names with "." in the bucket name are not supported.
- Non-empty buckets get removed on a DeleteBucket() call.
- _List Multipart Uploads_ and _List Object parts_ always returns empty list. i.e Client will need to remember all the parts that it has uploaded and use it for _Complete Multipart Upload_
Other limitations:
- Bucket notification APIs are not supported.
