Consider the scenario where you have millions of blobs in your storage account written and accessed by many different applications. You want to find all related data from a single project, but you aren't sure what is in scope as the data can be spread across multiple containers with different blob naming conventions. However, you know that your applications upload all data with tags based on their respective project and identifying description. Instead of searching through millions of blobs and comparing names and properties, you can simply use `Project = Contoso` as your discovery criteria. Blob Index will filter all containers across your entire storage account to quickly find and return just the set of fifty blobs from `Project = Contoso`.
