Azure Blob Storage offers unstructured data storage in the cloud. It can store all kinds of data, such as documents, VHDs, images, and audio files.

The other one is block blobs, which are basically all the other types of data that you can store in Azure, such as files and documents. The maximum size of a block blob is 200 GB. However, there is a third blob type named append blob, but this one is used internally by Azure and can't be used in order to store actual files. ...
