blob-storage

Blob storage, short for Binary Large Object storage, is a data storage architecture optimized for storing unstructured data. Unlike traditional file systems or block storage which organize data in a hierarchical manner, blob storage stores data as discrete objects, or blobs, without any inherent structure. Each blob is typically identified by a unique key, enabling efficient retrieval and management. Blob storage is commonly used for storing images, videos, audio files, documents, and other large binary files. It is highly scalable and cost-effective, making it suitable for cloud storage solutions and applications that require storing and serving large amounts of unstructured data.
