With aspnet core 3.x, the default Text JSON serializer as well as the Newtonsoft extension (if you're still holding on to Newtonsoft like I am) apply a camel casing naming strategy.

This means that for your upper case properties in C# land, they get translated to lower case starting letters in javascript. This is great. Unless you're dealing with a legacy codebase where the javascript is expecting the starting upper cases.

The fix is easy. Just set contract resolver in your Startup to an instance of DefaultContractResolver.

// When running a dotnet core console app from within a windows service, you may
// see that the service will not start. If you're using the default host builder it
// won't be able to find appsettings.json b/c your starting directory is not where it would
// be when you run interactively. 
//
// Call the WindowsServiceHelpers:IsWindowsService to check to see if you're running in a service
// context and then force the current directory to the location of the exe.

How to backup a SQL database to an AZURE storage account using the Ola Hallengren scripts.

Requires the stored procedures from: https://ola.hallengren.com/sql-server-backup.html

Create an azure storage account

First, create an azure storage account with block blob support (v2 will suffice) and then create a blob container within that. For this example we'll call it sqlbackup.
