Getting blob count in an Azure Storage container?

The API doesn't contain a container count method or property, so you'd need to do something like what you posted. However, you'll need to deal with NextMarker if you exceed 5,000 items returned (or if you specify max # to return and the list exceeds that number). Then you'll make add'l calls based on NextMarker and add the counts.

I tried counting blobs using ListBlobs() and for a container with about 400,000 items, it took me well over 5 minutes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
