About:
Azurite is a lightweight, cross-platform server that emulates Azure Blob, Queue, and Table storage services. It allows developers to build and test applications locally without connecting to the live Azure cloud, reducing costs and speeding up development cycles. It supports the Azure Storage REST API, enabling seamless integration with existing SDKs and tools.

Key Features:

Emulates Azure Blob, Queue, and Table storage APIs
Runs locally for offline development and testing
Cross-platform support (Windows, macOS, Linux)
Open-source with a large community and regular updates
Compatible with Azure Storage SDKs and tools like AzCopy

Use Cases:

Local development and testing of Azure Storage-dependent applications
CI/CD pipeline integration for running storage tests without cloud dependencies
Educational purposes for learning Azure Storage APIs

Alternatives:

Azure Storage Emulator – Official Microsoft emulator, but Windows-only and older/legacy
LocalStack – Emulates multiple AWS services, broader scope but not Azure-specific
