Version 2009-07-17

The 2009-07-17 version of Azure Storage includes these changes:

  • A root or default container that permits blobs to reside at the top level of the storage account hierarchy. For more information, see Work with the root container.

  • Enhancements to the Put Block List operation for updating blobs.

  • Delegated access to containers and blobs, via shared access signatures and container-level access policies. For more information, see Manage access to Azure Storage resources.

  • Thirty-second server timeouts for the List Containers, List Blobs, List Queues, Query Tables, and Query Entities operations.

  • A request against Azure Blob Storage can specify only a single conditional header. If a request specifies both the If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since headers, the request is evaluated based on the criteria that are specified in If-None-Match. If a request specifies both the If-Match and If-Unmodified-Since headers, the request is evaluated based on the criteria that are specified in If-Match. For more information, see Specify conditional headers for Blob Storage operations.
