File size limit of Azure Blob Storage?

Question

I'm creating an application (.NET MVC) where users can upload files through browser to Azure Blob Storage. The files that will be uploaded is 5-10gb. Is this possible? What is the maximum file size to be able to upload to Azure Blob Storage?

From Microsoft Documentation: ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/understanding-block-blobs--append-blobs--and-page-blobs#:~:text=Blobs%20in%20the%20Azure%20storage,maximum%20size%20of%202%20GB .)

About Block Blobs

Block blobs let you upload large blobs efficiently. Block blobs are comprised of blocks, each of which is identified by a block ID. You create or modify a block blob by writing a set of blocks and committing them by their block IDs. Each block can be a different size, up to a maximum of 100 MB (4 MB for requests using REST versions before 2016-05-31), and a block blob can include up to 50,000 blocks. The maximum size of a block blob is therefore slightly more than 4.75 TB (100 MB X 50,000 blocks). For REST versions before 2016-05-31, the maximum size of a block blob is a little more than 195 GB (4 MB X 50,000 blocks). If you are writing a block blob that is no more than 256 MB (64 MB for requests using REST versions before 2016-05-31) in size, you can upload it in its entirety with a single write operation; see Put Blob.
