Tejaswi Redkar · Apress eBooks · 2009
The previous chapter covered the computational and management features of Windows Azure. In this chapter, you learn about Windows Azure’s Storage service feature. Windows Azure Storage is a scalable, highly available, and durable service to store any kind of application data. The Storage service provides you with the ability to store data in three different types of storage types: blobs, queues, and tables. Each storage type has advantages; depending on the application requirements, you can choose the appropriate storage type for your data. You can also use multiple storage types within the same application. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
