Azure Data Lake Storage vs Azure Blob Storage
Developers should use Azure Data Lake Storage when building data lakes for large-scale analytics, machine learning, or real-time processing scenarios, as it offers petabyte-scale storage with high throughput and low latency meets developers should use azure blob storage when building cloud-native applications that require scalable storage for unstructured data, such as media files, logs, or backups, especially within the azure ecosystem. Here's our take.
