Problem compressing backup to Azure

$

Hi Pro's. This is my first question on here so please bear with me..I'm having problems backing up my databases to Azure blob storage with compression in that no matter what setting I try (i.e WITH COMPRESSION in T-SQL or enabling backup compression by default on the instance) the backup does not compress. - does anybody happen to know if this is a known problem?To test I tried the following:I performed a backup of one of our smaller databases (that contains real data) without compression to disk - this came out at 13mb. I performed the same backup (different media set) with compression enabled to disk - this came out at 458kb. I performed the same backup to a blob in Azure without compression - this came out at 13mb.I performed the same backup (different media set) to a blob in Azure with compression enabled - this came out at 13mb.Please let me know if I can/need to provide any more info.Thanks in advance,Jonathan
