A lightweight server clone of Azure Blob Storage that simulates most of the commands supported by it with minimal dependencies.
Azurite is an open-source Azure Storage API compatible server (emulator). It provides a local environment for testing and development of applications that use Azure Storage services, including Blob, Queue, and Table storage.
Blob Storage
This code snippet demonstrates how to start the Azurite Blob service on port 10000. Blob storage is used for storing large amounts of unstructured data such as text or binary data.
const azurite = require('azurite');
azurite().blob().listen(10000, () => {
console.log('Azurite Blob service is running on port 10000');
});Queue Storage
This code snippet demonstrates how to start the Azurite Queue service on port 10001. Queue storage is used for storing large numbers of messages that can be accessed from anywhere via authenticated calls.
const azurite = require('azurite');
azurite().queue().listen(10001, () => {
console.log('Azurite Queue service is running on port 10001');
});Table Storage
This code snippet demonstrates how to start the Azurite Table service on port 10002. Table storage is used for storing structured NoSQL data.
const azurite = require('azurite');
azurite().table().listen(10002, () => {
console.log('Azurite Table service is running on port 10002');
});LocalStack is a fully functional local AWS cloud stack. It provides a local testing environment for AWS services, including S3, DynamoDB, and SQS. Unlike Azurite, which focuses on Azure Storage services, LocalStack emulates a wide range of AWS services.
MinIO is a high-performance, S3-compatible object storage system. It is designed to be used for large-scale data infrastructure. While Azurite emulates Azure Blob storage, MinIO provides an alternative for S3-compatible object storage.
Fake S3 is a lightweight server that emulates the S3 API. It is useful for testing S3 interactions locally. Unlike Azurite, which emulates Azure Storage services, Fake S3 focuses solely on the S3 API.
