AbstractDatastore Class

Represents the base class for all datastores.

Datastores reference storage services in Azure and contain connection information to them. When working with Azure Machine Learning experiments, you can retrieve datastores already registered with your workspace or register new ones. To get started with datastores including create a new datastore, see the Datastore class.

Note: When using a datastore to access data, you must have permission to access the data, which depends on the credentials registered with the datastore.

You should not work with this class directly. To create a datastore, use one of the register* methods of the Datastore class such as register_azure_blob_container.

Class AbstractDatastore constructor.

This is a base class and users should not be creating this class using the constructor.
