 Azure Storage - Part 3 - Table, Queue & File Storage

Table Storage
• Used to store data in tables
• Tables do not have any constraints (like relational dbs) as there is no schema required
• The rows can have different properties
• Multiple tables can be used under a single storage account

Queue Storage
• Distributed applications can be designed to asynchronously communicate
• Source component places message in a queue
• Destination component processes each message at a time

File Storage
• Server Message Block (SMB) file shares in Azure
• Can be mapped on VMs
