NOS uses the /az/ prefix for Azure Blob Storage locations. The format is:

/az/<storage_account_name>.blob.core.windows.net/<container_name>/<optional_path>/

For Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS Gen2), the same format applies as long as the URL includes .blob. — both storage types are functionally identical from a NOS perspective.
