Azure Blob Storage features and specs

• Scalability
  Azure Blob Storage automatically scales to handle large amounts of data, enabling you to grow your storage needs without worrying about performance constraints.
• Durability
  Azure offers high durability with multiple redundant copies of your data, ensuring that your information is safeguarded against hardware failures.
• Cost Effectiveness
  Different tiers of storage (Hot, Cool, Archive) allow you to optimize costs based on how frequently you need to access your data.
• Security
  Robust security features, including encryption at rest and in transit, as well as advanced threat protection, keep your data secure.
• Integration
  Seamlessly integrates with Azure's ecosystem and other services, such as Azure Functions, Azure Data Factory, and more, for extended functionality.
• Global Reach
  Data centers available globally ensure lower latency and compliance with local data residency requirements.
• Automation
  Supports automation through REST APIs, SDKs, and Azure CLI, making it easier to manage and scale your storage programmatically.

Possible disadvantages of Azure Blob Storage

• Complex Pricing
  The tiered pricing model can be complex, making it challenging to estimate costs accurately, particularly if your usage patterns vary.
• Performance Variability
  Performance can vary based on the tier selected, and selecting the wrong tier might result in slower access speeds for your data.
• Data Transfer Costs
  Ingress is free, but data egress and data transfer between regions incur additional costs, which can add up if your application moves a lot of data.
• Learning Curve
  While powerful, the range of features and different settings can make it complex to get started, especially for organizations new to Azure.
• Latency
  Although Azure data centers are globally distributed, there can still be some latency issues depending on your geographic location relative to the data center.
• Vendor Lock-in
  Using Azure-specific APIs and integrations can create a dependency on Microsoft's ecosystem, making it difficult to switch providers in the future.
