Selected Answer: C
Correct answer - C Azure Blob storage is Microsoft's object storage solution for the cloud. Blob storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data, such as text or binary data. Blob storage is ideal for: Serving images or documents directly to a browser. Storing files for distributed access. Streaming video and audio. Storing data for backup and restore, disaster recovery, and archiving. Storing data for analysis by an on-premises or Azure-hosted service. Objects in Blob storage can be accessed from anywhere in the world via HTTP or HTTPS. Users or client applications can access blobs via URLs, the Azure Storage REST API, Azure PowerShell, Azure CLI, or an Azure Storage client library. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/storage/common/storage-introduction#blob-storage

Why not datalake? Blob (hot tier) is fast in read, but does not optimize storage costs, actually (in hot tier) it optimizes costs read/write transactions, but has higher cost of storage. Onyone can confirm please?

Even if it is cheaper I don't know if it actually supports cert based auth. And it's definitely not made to stream videos to end users.

the answer needs to be azure files as you need to be able to store video files up to 12GB which blob can't do. Azure files can store individual files of sizes up to 100GB
