Blob lifecycle management

Blob lifecycle management is a way to automatically control the storage and deletion of large data files (blobs) in cloud storage. It helps optimize costs and organization by setting rules to move blobs to cheaper storage tiers or delete them once they are no longer needed. For example, after a certain period, infrequently accessed files can be moved to cooler storage, and outdated files can be automatically deleted. This automation reduces manual effort, ensures cost-efficiency, and maintains an organized storage system without human intervention.
