Features

There are some of the key tasks you can perform by using BlobFuse2:

  • Mount an Azure Blob Storage container or Azure Data Lake Storage file system on Linux. (BlobFuse2 supports storage accounts with either flat namespaces or hierarchical namespace configured.)
  • Use basic file system operations like mkdir, opendir, readdir, rmdir, open, read, create, write, close, unlink, truncate, stat, and rename.
  • Use local file caching to improve subsequent access times.
  • Gain insights into mount activities and resource usage by using Health Monitor
  • Restrict what all blobs a mount can see or operate upon using Blob Filter
  • Downloading entire containers or sub-directories to the local cache when you mount BlobFuse with Preload Data
