SharePoint Migration
A few years ago, I created a solution for another department where they could store video files that they download from their security files. The files weren't supposed to stay there long term. They are store in a document library in an Online SharePoint site. Fast forward to today, that department has filled up our SharePoint storage capacity over and over again. We are not able to delete these files, for legal reasons. Storing large video files in a document library is probably not the best use case.
I'm looking to migrate these files over to Azure Blob Storage.
My question is does anyone have a good solution to move large files and TB's worth of files from a SharePoint document library to Azure Blob Storage?
Because they are large files Power Automate is not a good solution because it times out.
I'm open to purchasing something if that is the best solution I find.
Thanks

Tools like AvePoint, Movebot, or Gs Richcopy360 offer graphical interfaces and enterprise features for SharePoint to Azure Blob migration ,these tools handle permissions, metadata, error retries, and large datasets efficiently , usually a paid option, but it can save time and reduce migration complexity.
With SharePoint's SPMT, you can also try it in the Microsoft 365 Administrator Center!
