Blobs, Queues, and Tables

Updated: October 6, 2011

For getting started information about Windows Azure storage, see the following topics in the Windows Azure Developer Center:

This section provides information about using Windows Azure Storage Services to store and access data. The Windows Azure Storage services are comprised of:

  • Blobs - Used to store unstructured binary and text data

  • Queues - Used for storing messages that may be accessed by a client and providing reliable messaging between role instances

  • Tables - Used to store non-relational structured data

  • Windows Azure drives - Used to mount an NTFS volume accessible to code running in your Windows Azure service

Use the links on this page as a jumpstart to understanding what to consider when using Windows Azure Storage. These links come from across Microsoft’s various content providers. This page will be updated periodically when new content is available, so check back often to see what’s new.
