Hi.

"blob storage" can mean a lot of things. Where exactly is it stored and in what medium [brand or type of database?, blob or clob datatype? Amazon S3?, something else?].

Sorry . Forgot to include it. It is Microsoft Azure . It is possible to get the file using DataStage? Right now we are using API to get the file from blob storage then store the file in our DataStage server

"Read a BLOB (GET BLOB)" section of Developerworks article IBM Datastage Hierarchical Stage made easy to do operations on Azure-Cloud platform has information on reading Azure blob using XML connector. It may help you.

Do share your solution and experience in accessing Azure blobs from DataStage in this forum.
