Trying to find azure storage naming limitations

Question

I found this:  http://www.cerebrata.com/Blog/post/Windows-Azure-Datails-and-Limitations.aspx but don't know where it comes from. 

Specifically, is 1024 the max length of a blob name?

What is the max length of data associated with a metadata key?

Where can I find these? I've been searching with no luck

Thanks

Hi Peter,

Here is additional link for metadata size: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd179404.aspx . Based on this the total size of metadata is 8K.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
