Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) Practice Exam

True or False: Azure Blob Storage can store large amounts of unstructured data.

1. True

2. False

3. Only structured data

4. Only if compressed

The correct answer is: True

Azure Blob Storage is designed specifically to handle large amounts of unstructured data, which includes text or binary data such as documents, images, videos, and backups. It provides a scalable and cost-effective solution for storing data that does not adhere to a specific schema, allowing organizations to store vast quantities of varied data types seamlessly. The architecture of Azure Blob Storage is optimized for this purpose, enabling users to efficiently manage data without the constraints typically associated with structured databases. This flexibility makes Azure Blob Storage particularly valuable for applications that require the storage of large volumes of data without a predefined structure. Other options suggesting that Blob Storage only handles structured data or has restrictions based on compression do not reflect its intended functionality and versatility in managing unstructured data.
