Where has Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Tables gone?

Question

On the GitHub page for https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-net it states "As of 9.4.0, Tables are not supported by this library."

Does anyone know where this namespace has gone ?

Answer 1

It seems that (despite the confusing name) it has been put in with the CosmosDB table package - https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Azure.CosmosDB.Table

Answer 2

There have been multiple renames and moves of the .NET SDK for Azure Storage tables. The versions go like this, chronologically:

1. Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.Table
2. Microsoft.Azure.CosmosDB.Table
3. Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Table
4. Azure.Data.Tables

For some time, the SDK became part of the Azure Cosmos DB SDK (instead of Azure Storage SDK), allegedly to ease the migration, but now it has its own package that seems to go in the direction of separation and unification as part of the implementation of the Track2 architecture of Azure SDKs.

There is a migration guide to the new SDK, but it does not cover the first SDK version in the sequence, which is sadly the one this question is about.

The migration guide link above saved me. Thanks. – Fanlight
