Does Unity Catalog on Azure require premium blob storage tier?

from the docs I read :

  • Create a storage container where the metastore’s managed table data will be stored.
  • This storage container must be in a Premium performance Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account in the same region as the workspaces you want to use to access the data.
  • It can be overridden at the catalog and schema levels.

Looking at the terraform provider I see the example configuration uses a standard tier ADLS.

can anyone provide more details?
