I have a custom stream that is used to perform write operations directly into the page cloud blob. public sealed class WindowsAzureCloudPageBlobStream : Stream { // 4 MB is the top most limit for page blob write operations public const int MaxPageWriteCapacity = 4 * 1024 * 1024; // Every operation on a page blob has to manipulate a value which is rounded up to 512 bytes private const int PageBlobPageAdjustmentSize = 512; private CloudPageBlob _pageBlob; public override void Write(byte[] buffer, int offset, int count) { var additionalOffset = 0; var bytesToWriteTotal = count; List<Task> list =

I'm trying to connect web and worker role. So i have a page where user can upload video files. Files are large so i can't use the query to send files. That's why i'm trying to upload them into the Blob Storage and then send the url by the query. But i don't know how to get this url. Can anyone help me? Gaurav Mantri Assuming you're uploading the blobs into blob storage using .Net storage client library by creating an instance of CloudBlockBlob , you can get the URL of the blob by reading Uri property of the blob. static void BlobUrl() { var account = new CloudStorageAccount(new

I'm trying to get some information about Azure blob (last modified UTC date time). This information is stored CloudBlob.Properties.LastModifiedUtc property. If I use method GetBlobReference() or GetBlockBlobReference(), the Properties of the blob are not initialized (LastModifiedUtc is DateTime.MinDate). If I use ListBlobs() the Properties are initialized correctly (LastModifiedUtc has correct value). Am I doing something wrong when using GetBlobReference function? Is there some way how to get CloudBlob instance just for one specific blob? I know I can missue ListBlobs() and filter just the

I am using the following code from an android application to upload a blob to Azure Blob Storage. Note: the sasUrl parameter below is a signed url acquired from my web service : // upload file to azure blob storage private static Boolean upload(String sasUrl, String filePath, String mimeType) { try { // Get the file data File file = new File(filePath); if (!file.exists()) { return false; } String absoluteFilePath = file.getAbsolutePath(); FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(absoluteFilePath); int bytesRead = 0; ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); byte[] b = new byte

It's quite a topic, blobs vs tables vs SQL , and despite all I read so far I still can't find some proper reasoning on what to use when. We have a multi-tenant SaaS web-application which we are about to move to Azure. We use an SQL Server 2008 database. We store documents and log information that belongs to the documents. Kinda like dropbox does. The forums state that you better use Azure Tables when you are considering "large" objects. We typically store hundreds of documents per user where the size of the documents vary from 5kb to 30mb where the vast majority will be around 1MB? Are there

Im trying to incorporate Azure to store the majority of my files for an application. I want to upload these files to a private container and private blob in azure, and have those uploads copied through the Azure CDN to all of the other nodes (still as private containers and blobs). I then want my application to make a request to a stored blob, and give me the shared access signature link to the blob for a period of time. However, I want the link generated to be given for the closest datacenter to the user. I will have the SAS be generated each time a blob is needed, but I need to be able to

I have about 110,000 images of various formats (jpg, png and gif) and sizes (2-40KB) stored locally on my hard drive. I need to upload them to Azure Blob Storage. While doing this, I need to set some metadata and the blob's ContentType, but otherwise it's a straight up bulk upload. I'm currently using the following to handle uploading one image at a time (paralleled over 5-10 concurrent Tasks). static void UploadPhoto(Image pic, string filename, ImageFormat format) { //convert image to bytes using(MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream()) { pic.Save(ms, format); ms.Position = 0; //create the blob,
