Question

Dhanush M P · Accepted Answer

Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) is a scalable and secure data lake solution built on top of Azure Blob Storage, designed to store massive amounts of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data with a hierarchical namespace for file system-like organization. It supports big data analytics and integrates with Azure analytics tools like Azure Synapse and Databricks, offering fine-grained security, high throughput, and cost-effective tiered storage. ADLS complements other Azure Storage services by focusing on analytics workloads and large-scale data processing, while Blob Storage serves more general object storage needs.
