Append Blobs
Append blobs are made up of blocks like block blobs, but are optimized for append operations.
Append blobs are ideal for scenarios such as logging data from virtual machines.
When you modify an append blob, blocks are added to the end of the blob only, via the Append Block operation. Updating or deleting of existing blocks is not supported. Unlike a block blob, an append blob does not expose its block IDs.
They are one of the possible ways to use [[azure-blob-storage]].

Azure Blob Storage
The storage service offers three types of blobs: [[azure-blob-storage-block-blobs]], [[azure-blob-storage-append-blobs]], and [[azure-blob-storage-page-blobs]]. You specify the blob type when you create the blob. Once the blob has been created, its type cannot be changed.
