I am surprised it was not supported until now? How does it compare to azure blob append (which exists for years)?
I have been using azure storage append blob to store logs of long running tasks with periodic flush (see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/understanding-block-blobs--append-blobs--and-page-blobs https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/u...)
- xkqd 2y agoI know the whole point of cloud services is to pick and choose, but in general I wouldn’t express “outrage” or scoff when comparing Azure to AWS. I recommend Azure to the smallest and leanest of shops, but when you compare functionality matrices and maturity Azure is a children’s toy. To compare the other way, Azure write blocks target replication blob containers. I consider that a primitive and yet they just outright say you can’t do it. When I engaged our TPM on this we were just told our expectations were wrong and we were thinking about the problem wrong.
- styx31 2y agoI did not want to express any outrage (even sarcastically), just surprise and the fact that I don't know very well the AWS offer. > Azure write blocks target replication blob containers I am sorry but what does it mean? The goal of my question was about what are the differences between the two solutions: I know HN is a place where I can read technical arguments based on actual experience.
