Answer

Use Azure SQL long-term backup retention policy (LTR) to automatically retain backups in separate Azure Blob storage containers for up to 10 years.
You can then recover a database using these backups using the Azure portal or PowerShell. Long-term retention policies are also supported for Azure SQL Managed Instance.
