Which one, for what

Azure Blob Storage BB

Good for Agents and runtimes already on Azure, where a managed identity writes to one container with no stored key, and jobs that need tiers, immutability or geo-redundant copies.

Ahead on

  • Reliability, 88 against 75
  • Schema & documentation, 85 against 64
  • Agent ergonomics, 84 against 57
  • Security & auth, 81 against 45
  • Maintenance & community, 80 against 63

Verdicts

Azure Blob Storage

Microsoft Entra ID roles can be scoped to one container, and a user delegation signature hands out a link that expires within seven days. Account keys with full access stay enabled until the owner turns them off, request logs are off until configured, and an Azure account needs a person, a phone number and a payment card.

Bunny Storage

$0.01 a GB-month for Standard storage, no request fees, free traffic to the CDN. Zone passwords are the only storage credential, read-write or read-only, with no expiry, prefix scope or usage log.

Before you call either

Azure Blob Storage

  1. Request an Entra ID token for https://storage.azure.com/ and send it as a Bearer header with x-ms-version and x-ms-date. Put Blob also needs x-ms-blob-type: BlockBlob
  2. Ask for a Storage Blob Data role on the one container. Role changes can take up to 10 minutes to apply
  3. To share a file, call Get User Delegation Key, then sign a SAS with sp=r, spr=https and a short expiry. Treat the URL as a secret
  4. Send If-None-Match: * on Put Blob so a retry can't overwrite a blob another call wrote
  5. On 503 ServerBusy back off exponentially. After 500 OperationTimedOut check the blob's state before retrying, since the write may have succeeded

Bunny Storage

  1. Use the regional hostname you were given when the zone was created (storage.bunnycdn.com is Frankfurt). Other regions return a 401
  2. Send the body as raw bytes with --data-binary. Base64 or form encoding gets a 401
  3. Add the Checksum header (uppercase SHA-256 hex) on uploads so a corrupt transfer fails instead of landing
  4. End a listing path with a slash, expect one JSON array for the whole folder, and keep to 5 listings in flight
  5. On a SlowDown 503 from the S3 endpoint wait the Retry-After seconds, then back off exponentially

Do agents find, use and choose your tools?

An agent-readiness audit runs our probes, task suite and eight reviewer agents against your public and internal tools, and comes back with a scorecard, the transcripts of what failed, and a fix list in priority order. From $2,500, re-run included. We never take payment to move a rank. We do help companies earn one.
