From: Long Li <longli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Microsoft Azure Blob Storage servcie exposes a REST API to applications for data access. While it's flexible and works on most platforms, it's not as efficient as native network stack. This patchset implements a VSC that communicates with a VSP on the host to execute blob storage access via native network stack on the host.
