Azure Functions triggers and bindings enable you to easily integrate event and data sources with function applications. This feature enables you to use types from service SDKs and frameworks, providing more capability beyond what is currently offered. 

Specifically, SDK type bindings for Azure Storage Blob enable the following key scenarios:

  • Downloading and uploading blobs of large sizes, reducing current memory limitations and GRPC limits.
  • Improved performance by using blobs with Azure Functions
