    Hi Hua,

    Azure does not currently provide a feature to limit the storage size of an individual container within a Storage account​​​​. So, it is not possible to set a specific quota or maximum storage capacity for an individual Azure Blob container.

    The size of a blob container can grow up to the maximum capacity of the Azure Storage account to which it belongs.

    Kindly the Azure Storage limitation documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/azure-subscription-service-limits#azure-storage-limits

    And Azure Blob Storage Limits: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/azure-subscription-service-limits#azure-blob-storage-limits
