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.\n\n**DigitalOcean Spaces.** Per-bucket access keys with read or read-write-delete grants, an 800 operations a second limit per bucket and a 99.9 per cent SLA are all published. The MCP server manages keys and CDN endpoints only, not objects, and the S3 reference documents no error codes. A payment method is required before any bucket is created.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Azure Blob Storage\n\n1. 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`\n2. Ask for a Storage Blob Data role on the one container. Role changes can take up to 10 minutes to apply\n3. 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\n4. Send `If-None-Match: *` on Put Blob so a retry can't overwrite a blob another call wrote\n5. On 503 ServerBusy back off exponentially. After 500 OperationTimedOut check the blob's state before retrying, since the write may have succeeded\n\n### DigitalOcean Spaces\n\n1. Set the endpoint to `https://\u003cregion\u003e.digitaloceanspaces.com` and, in AWS SDKs other than Python's, set `region` to `us-east-1` when creating a bucket\n2. Ask for a limited access key with a Read or Read/Write/Delete grant on one bucket. A full access key can create, configure and delete every bucket\n3. Do the object work through the S3 API. The MCP server and `doctl` cannot upload, list, move or delete files\n4. Retry with exponential backoff on `503 Slow Down`, and keep below 800 operations a second per bucket\n5. Fetch presigned links from the origin host, not the CDN. The docs say presigned requests through the CDN are not cached and can double the bandwidth charge\n6. Avoid many tiny objects. Each bills as at least 4 KiB on Standard and 128 KiB on Cold Storage, which also has a 30-day minimum\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Azure Blob Storage or DigitalOcean Spaces?\n\nAzure Blob Storage scores 75.7 (BB) on agent readiness against DigitalOcean Spaces's 63.2 (B), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Do Azure Blob Storage and DigitalOcean Spaces need an API key?\n\nAzure Blob Storage takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. DigitalOcean Spaces needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Azure Blob Storage and DigitalOcean Spaces without installing anything?\n\nYes. Azure Blob Storage has a hosted endpoint at https://\u003caccount\u003e.blob.core.windows.net and DigitalOcean Spaces at https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/azure-blob-storage-vs-digitalocean-spaces.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/azure-blob-storage-vs-digitalocean-spaces.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"azure-blob-storage\", \"b\": \"digitalocean-spaces\"}`.
