Is there a way to remove the case sensitivity from blob storage

Question

I am just giving windows azure a try with a trial account and I see that blob storage is case sensitive. For exmaple, I uploaded a file called Koala.jpg. When I make a request to it <storage-account>.blob.core.windows.net/<container>/Koala.jpg I retrieve the image w/o problem.

But when I try to get the image with this url, I am unable to:

<storage-account>.blob.core.windows.net/<container>/koala.jpg

So, any chance I can make it case insensitive?

Answer 1

To my knowledge, there's no way to change this. Additionally, some areas do not allow uppercase names (storage account name as I recall). So I'd strongly encourage forcing a downcase on all items.

Answer 2

Yes, you are right. I will force this. thanks!
