Storage & Identity

Massive amounts of unstructured object data, such as text or binary files, images, video, and backups.

Fully managed file shares in the cloud accessible via the SMB and NFS protocols, mountable concurrently by cloud or on-premises deployments.

Storing large numbers of messages that can be accessed from anywhere, typically used to decouple application components and build asynchronous workflows.

A NoSQL store for schemaless, structured non-relational data (key/attribute pairs), suitable for large amounts of data that does not require complex joins or stored procedures.

Block-level storage volumes managed by Azure and used with Azure Virtual Machines, where Azure handles the underlying storage account and reliability.

Azure Blobs (objects), Azure Files (file shares), Azure Queues (messages), and Azure Tables (NoSQL data).
