Azure Storage is a foundational component of the platform, supporting nearly every service and workload type. This episode introduces the main storage services—Blob, File, Queue, and Table—and explains their purposes. Blob Storage handles unstructured data such as documents and images, while File Storage provides shared file systems accessible over standard protocols. Queue Storage enables asynchronous messaging between components, and Table Storage supports key-value datasets for lightweight applications. Understanding these options is crucial for AZ-900 exam success, as many questions revolve around matching storage types to business scenarios.The episode continues with practical explanations of how Azure Storage delivers durability, scalability, and accessibility. Learners explore how data is replicated automatically to protect against loss, how storage accounts define access boundaries, and how encryption ensures confidentiality. Real-world examples show how organizations use Blob Storage for backups, File Storage for network shares, and Queue Storage for distributed processing pipelines. By mastering these core concepts, listeners gain insight into how Azure balances flexibility and reliability in data management.
