25. Blob Storage
Scale &
Performance
Per Blob
Single Block Blob max size
increased 25x to 5TB
Read and write throughput for a
single object can scale to as high
as 12.5 GB/s (100 Gb/s)
50% improvement in read latency
for small blobs

32. Blob Level
Tiering
Blob-Level Tiering
Individual blobs can move between
tiers
All tiers co-exist in the same storage
account
New API to set blob tier:
SetBlobTier
Acknowledged immediately from
service
Get APIs (GetBlobProperties and
ListBlobs) return current tier and
archive status
New headers "x-ms-access-tier” and
“x-ms-archive-status”
Blob REST API
Hot Tier
Lower Transaction cost
Cool Tier
Lower Capacity cost
Archive Tier
Lowest Capacity cost
