[Launched] Generally Available: Client-side data integrity protections in Azure Blob Storage
What the source says
Azure Blob Storage has long supported data integrity validation, starting with MD5 as part of the original HTTP standards and adding CRC64-NVME support in 2019. Today, CRC64-NVME is now integrated into the latest Azure Blob SDKs for .NET, C++, and JavaScript, extending Azure's data integrity protections all the way into client applications. By extending data protection into client applications, customers can verify end-to-end that data written to and read from Blob Storage remains fully intact—byte-for-byte—from the application layer to Azure’s underlying physical storage, using CRC64-NVME checksums. To get started, upgrade to the latest .NET, C++, or JavaScript SDK. Learn more.
